lol what?
I don't really consider myself much of a science fiction reader. It took a little convincing for me to pick this up but I'm mindblown in the most strange and unsettling way. Most of all because if I ever tried to explain the plot of this book to anyone I would immediately be written off as a weirdo (which I am, but that's a different convo.)
Andy Weir has done in one book what takes most writers 4-5 books. He's written a story that stretches the limits of what is possible and yet pulls it off with ease. Project Hail Mary was hilarious and it also made me feel a little sad and a little giddy at times.
What a strange combination.
If this is what I have to look forward to in the science fiction genre I may need to add some more books to my TBR.
