At first it was a quite exciting read and I devoured the first half of this book. The authors speciality in describing physics, space and science shows a great understanding and is a delight for science buffs. But after reading hours and hours of it I just couldn't take it anymore.... another experiment, another fun of of the box physics thing he does in space.... I don't know it took all the fun for me away and I tried to speed read these parts and skipped pages of this book just to finish it.
Love rocky though and enjoyed every encounter with him. <3

Well, this was exactly what I hoped it would be. A quick-paced space novel, with relatable though probably not representative narration (but I might be prejudiced towards scientists) and an easy arc that was enjoyable to read.
The main character had the same sarcastic, down-to-earth mentality as the guy from The Martian (a book I also thoroughly enjoyed), and I would recommend this book to everyone looking for a summer read!

Even if you usually swing more towards the fantasy side of the fantasy/sci-fi genre, I HIGHLY recommend this book. The way this book is organized is so impactful, with the main character waking from a coma out in space and unable to remember why he's there. Throughout the book, he slowly recovers his memories, thus discovering that not everything is as it seems.
I'm being a little vague in my review, because this book is fun to read without any prior information. But rest-assured, you won't regret picking up this book about courage, sacrifice, and, ultimately, eternal friendship.

The only note I can give this book is that you have to suspend disbelief to accept how much science the MC knows- but that's pretty much par for the course of an Andy Weir book, and didn't bother me too much.
