As with everything Weir writes, I loved this! This might even beat the Martian for me which is one of my all time favorites. I am so glad I went in blind knowing very little about the story. everything was a surprise and it’s one of those books I wish I could read for the first time again. I didn’t go in expecting to get so emotional either. There were parts where my heart was racing, there were parts where I was choked up. And that’s saying a lot, usually books don’t this much of a reaction from me unless I’m really attached to the characters, and it’s a really compelling story. And I’m a science nerd so all the explanations fed the little nerd part of my brain nicely. Excited for what he writes next!
