The Martian by Andy Weir

Yaaaaaasss!!! This so brought out my (not-so)-inner nerd... I even thought about calculating orbital trajectories for funsies (dad would be so proud)! I loved the main character's attitude throughout his struggles... it can't be easy being stranded on Mars, and I can only hope to have half of his good humor in my much less stressful life! Love love this book.

Loved the story, the character, the humor. Loved the research that went into telling this story. The ending was a bit of a strech for me though

I might try to finish it. It's  good but for some reason  I lost patience with it
