About half way through Death's End by Cixin Liu on the KA1.

I dropped
The Fall of Hyperion. I just found myself not caring. There was no way I was making it through the rest of the series, so I saw no reason to keep trying with this one.
I finished
Death's End last night. I enjoyed the series for the most part, but I agree with NPR's assessment - "Unfortunately, a few of the flaws of the first two books are ported into Death's End. Liu's exposition can get downright leaden, especially when there are reams of scientific jargon and theory to be delivered to the reader. " I was also a little dissatisfied with the ending, but I am still glad I read it.
Started Edgar Contero's
Meddling Kids right after. From the description:

The surviving members of a forgotten teenage detective club (and their dog) must reunite as broken adults to finally solve the terrifying case that ruined them all and sent the wrong man to prison. Scooby Doo and the gang never had to do this!
