Holy shit.

This book was recommended to me by my friend who is a physics teacher and it was such a challenge but so so so impressive and fun. Imagine a 400 page novel just covers only the inciting incident of a larger story. Couple that with so much technical science talk that will definitely go over the head of your average reader. Sounds like a slog, doesn't it? This is exactly why I'm so impressed and delighted by The Three Body Project. It's absolutely fantastic despite all of that and I cannot wait to pick up the second book.

I can only imagine how much more I would've enjoyed this book if I were a person of science lmao.

Anyway, if you love sci-fi you HAVE TO read this book. It's gonna be adapted into a Netflix series and if they do it right its gonna be huge.
