I liked the series. I liked the cosmic themes and times scales of 2 and 3, I liked how Cixin Liu updated Cosmic Horror (like Lovecraft stuff) for 21st century readers to actually feel that horror.
I don't think the book's thesis that galactic life is inherently and inevitably hostile is true - partially because I think there's a very good chance that humanity is it when it comes to intelligent life in our local group and partially because I think hostile life is unlikely to develop to societies of technological advancement and desires to expand and form a threat.
A lot of people think the last half of the series falls off, I get where they're coming from. I liked them and I'd give it a shot for sure! There's also, like, an elevated fanfic that Cixin Liu gave a nod to that takes place after the series that's much more hopeful.
Edit: oh yeah and the gender shit is a little weird and off-putting, I got past it but there was a lot that made me think "wtf is my man on"
