Project Hail Mary - Andy Weir

We had a pretty good turnout for our first book of the month vote. To be honest I did not anticipate the problem of there being a tie. I took the liberty of flipping a coin which came out heads for Project Hail Mary. In the future I might have to come up with a better method of tie breaking. I’m figuring this out as I go and it is all just for the fun of it anyway so please don’t take this too seriously.

I intend to read this book over the month of September and then near the end of the month I will create a discussion thread for it where people can discuss it without worrying about spoilers. Follow along if you want to.

    If you read/heard The Martian, it’s similarly themed and detailed. If you haven’t, then what are you doing! You need to go read the martian.

        Honestly I tried both these books, the writing style is unbelievably irritating.

        It reads like “Woo science is cool isn’t science cool?!?” Constantly. Yes we get it, you’re from a deeply religious country and you’re now entering the 20th century ffs
