Wrapped up the first book after much struggle. Am I crazy for finding it extremely poorly written? Writing aside, the characters suck, the motivations suck, and the scenario building feels like it was tossed together by a 12 year old. I don't get the hype. Everything is paper thin. The fictional science aspect is the most compelling part but as a cohesive whole it fails to land.

So.... what you're saying is "skill issue"

Not skill, just perspective. Everyone has a right to like (or dislike) what they like, but that's as much about them as it is about the art.
