  Read the 2nd book. It was fine, there’s some really silly dallying going on with the main character through the whole first half. And the Tri-solarans can’t seem to figure out how powerful or helpless they are to kill him.

  I think the most interesting thing I took away was that feeling people in other countries get when they read books written from an American perspective. The books got a real “Chinese Exeptionalism” vibe. I have now witnessed how annoying that is

    I was really referring to the first book, in which a character invites the Trisolarians to conquer Earth because she’s pissed off at her own government.
