I just finished book 6 of the expanse. I live this series so much! I love great hard magic systems which this is, and the author is a bit Frederick Backman esk with how well his writing gets me to feel the emotions and moments of the characters.

I've tried to watch the TV show and quit after the first season. I was just so confused. Once I finish the books later this year I'm gonna watch the series to the end of it.

I really only liked Leviathan Wakes since it was basically a sci-fi hardboiled detective story. I couldn't get through the other books

I can see that. Particularly if you like detective writing.
