Nook & Cranny reviewed The Martian by Andy Weir (The Martian, #1)
Reading this 7 years after I watched the movie... twice
5 stars
Fantastic story. Truly gripping and I need to watch the movie again. I find myself not remembering any major plots so I guess it'll feel like I've never seen it before.
As a non-native speaker with a full-time job it took me less than a regular book that size. Which means i really did read it in a pace very unusual for me.
Having read Andy's third book after The Martian I could see where he's coming from. He made the great science-stuff so much more tangible than in The Martian. Nonetheless, his skill to explain what's happening with all the analogies and metaphors is increcibly fascinating.
And off I go for Artemis. Truly curious.
