I Am the Highest Civilization in the Universe

The part about taking a dump at the beginning cracked me up, but that's about it. The rest reads like an autobiography—no climax, no anticipation, just like reading a Chinese textbook.

The beginning was somewhat interesting, but the later parts were completely bland and uninteresting. The protagonist seems to have no goals, evolving solely for the sake of evolution? Like a plain, uninteresting story, it lacks any emotional depth. Towards the end, I skipped through chapters by chapter.

Characters are very important. If the characters are well-developed and memorable, but then you rush out of Earth's orbit, how many writers can actually write a good interstellar story?

I read this book a long time ago, and upon rereading it, I found it wasn't very good.

It feels like the author hasn't even figured out how to write it.
