So good!!!! I'm not a huge sci fi fan but I could not put this book down! Mark Watney is one of my favorite male protagonists I've yet to encounter. The only reason I didn't rate it 5 stars is because nearing the end I found myself less willing to read through all of the explaining and math. Whenever Watney's dialogue started to explain things I ended up skimming the paragraph. Even throughout the end I loved it. I'm definitely recommending it to everyone I speak to.

This story means a lot to me. I believe the eternal views of the internal conflict emphasizes the strength of a person's brain. It's human nature to question and to wonder and to get your mind stuck on something - more often than not i see it in people close to me. Even though this book is just an example, it's really also very true to a human characteristic that's found often.
