Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir

Overall an enjoyable read. The juxtaposition of very complex concepts and YA writing style was a bit odd, though. It’s not bad, but let’s just say that this book is for the stem nerds and not the literary nerds! And sometimes you just need a little swearing. If you’re going to talk about relativity, you should just say the word piss because two characters getting into a “peeing contest” is silly. 

I digress! It was a nice story and the exciting parts made up for the slow and difficult-to-understand bits, which were largely unimportant anyways. The simultaneous timelines were perfect for unfolding the story, too. And we love Rocky.
