Working on three body problem. I dont know if anyone else have a hard time with translated works, but I always feel like some part of the book is missing when translated. Like iboixk up on a few context clues that something should be known.

Anyways I'm enjoying it, just lots of extra lookin things up, makes it a bit tedious.

Yeah, I'm about a third of the way into it and thinking that the translation presents a small barrier.

I'm reading on a ebook, so I get clickable footnotes sometimes, usually though it's mostly for common facts a chinese reader would have. Dont know if there are different translations or not.
