Project Hail Mary

Unwitting astronaut works out plot and solves problems.By Andy WeirRating: 4.5 / 5.I don’t even know how to summarize this without giving anything away, but I can say that the formula seemed exactly the same as The Martian with a smart and good-humored scientist finding answers to a stream of problems—and I was just as happy to be along for the ride. Memorable plot, memorable characters with moments both gripping and touching. I was in the mood for some fun fiction and this did not disappoint.
