Review of The Martian by Andy Weir

Our book club has read several Sci-Fi books, but The Martian stood out from the rest. We were captivated by the realistic Sci-Fi plot line, which was a deviation from the usual fantasy Sci-Fi plots we’ve encountered previously. From the start of the book you know you are in for a humorous and sarcastic read about something potentially plausible.

What we liked:
- A fast read and can’t put it down
- The plot line was exciting and had you wondering what Watney would do next
- The humor and sarcasm
- It was entertaining regardless if you’re a scientifically minded person or non-scientifically minded

What we didn’t like:
- For some the parts about science/math/technical jargon were tedious to read
- A few disliked that the science wasn’t entirely accurate
