Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir
4.0
4.5⭐️ So surprisingly wholesome. I saw a lot of people comparing this narrator to Mark Watney and there are definite similarities. The majority of the book is science stuff which was easy enough to follow and made me feel very smart.
I love Rocky. I’m happy with the ending. I was expecting to cry but didn’t which I call a win.
One drawback: even though the stakes of this book are IMPOSSIBLY high (all life on two planets high) the text is pretty bland. The stress levels don’t feel heightened and so as a reader I did not feel emotionally connected. I don’t think I would’ve cried even if the opportunity arose because I wasn’t absorbed enough.
