Book Review of "Project Hail Mary"

Andy Weir is back! “Project Hail Mary” is fun, entertaining and just the right amount of dramatic! Humanity is facing an extinction-level event and the only person who can save it is your typical Andy Weir protagonist - a smart-mouthed, resourceful, nerdy, kinda-coward but ultimately brave enough person with amazing problem-solving skills! Yes, you are not alone if you think this sounds a bit too similar to The Martian, but trust me, it’s still enjoyable and the second & the third act is more of a buddy comedy than a survival story. 

After the snoozefest that was the “Artemis”, I had lowered my expectations, and boy am I glad to be more than pleasantly surprised! So if you enjoy SciFi, then give it a go - solid 4/5.

(Alternatively, you could just wait and watch the movie when it comes out in a couple of years; apparently, Hollywood has already purchased the rights!)
