The Martian by Andy Weir

4.0

What a thrilling adventure! The highlight of the book for me (other than the strong premise) was the book’s main character, Mark Watney. His ingenuity, resourcefulness, quick wit, and good attitude made for an excellent main protagonist. 4 stars because the science lingo and problem-solving was hard for me to follow at times which made it possible for me to put the book down several times before finishing it. Additionally, some of the 3rd person POV shifts felt jarring to me. Overall, I highly recommend this book if you like sci-fi and a read that keeps you on the edge of your seat!
