I loved all of the directions the story took and the details; every time I felt like I had a handle on where the story was going it would throw a slight curveball and I'd be glued to my chair trying to figure out what in the world was going to happen. I adored
"The way Grace went from being forced to sacrifice himself for humanity to voluntarily doing it for Rocky [...] "
This book truly left such a wonderful impression and is easily getting categorized into the books I wish I could read again with no memory and will easily be a reread-er for me.
As an additional review for the audiobook: I 100% recommend that everyone try out the audiobook either in tandem with the book or on its own. It's easily one of the best audiobooks I've ever listened to and was so masterfully done. The way that they did

It's a minor thing but moral consistency is important in a book where one of the central plots focuses around
The main character is like an annoying and less likeable version of Mark Watney, Rocky is the saving grave of this book.
Worth reading, but if you lived The Martian make sure you lower your expectations before diving into this one.

Ich bin so froh, dass ich mich nicht von der Dicke habe abschrecken lassen. Es war so gut!
Abgesehen von der Zusammenfassung, wusste ich nichts über die Geschichte und ich denke dass war auch sehr gut so. Daher möchte ich auch niemandem etwas vorwegnehmen, sondern lest es gerne selber und lasst euch mitreißen.
Aber Rocky war so putzig! Ich habe ihn so ins Herz geschlossen und als er fast gestorben ist, war ich erschüttert. Auch der Abschied als sie sich getrennt haben, tat mir innerlich weh. Dafür können sie jetzt zusammen alt werden.
Und sogar Adrian hat auf Rocky gewartet :)
