The Martian by Andy Weir

5.0

It took me a bit to get into this book because of all the science talk, but once the story really got rolling I loved it! The story bounces between journal entries from Mark who’s stuck on mars and accounts of what’s happening back on earth. I thought each perspective was done well and made this book a page turner. I’m also not usually a science fiction reader, but I found the use of real science made the story more believable. On top of all that, Mark’s journal entries were super fun to read. I laughed out loud multiple times while reading this book. Overall, I’d recommend this to everyone whether you’re a science fiction fan or not!
