Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir
The only exposure I had to Andy Weir prior to listening to this audio book was watching the movie adaptation of The Martian, which I really enjoyed. But I had heard mixed things about Andy Weir’s writing so I wasn’t sure what to expect. This novel delivered way beyond my expectations. In fact, it is one of the very best science fiction novels I have ever read.

| Ready Player One by Ernest Cline was an enjoyable novel that had a lot going for it. When I saw that there was a sequel, I was hesitant to read it since it seemed to me that the story had all been told in the first novel, and there was no need for a ...more | |
“I have seen many atrocities, but they are outweighed by the kind deeds that may seem small, but when added together, create a strong human spirit. Perhaps you would benefit from living a simple life away from war and politics.”
― Two For Eternity
― Two For Eternity
“Horror itself is a bit of a bullied genre, the antagonist being literary snobbery and public misconception. And I think good horror tackles our darkest fears, whatever they may be. It takes us into the minds of the victims, explores the threats, disseminates fear, studies how it changes us. It pulls back the curtain on the ugly underbelly of society, tears away the masks the monsters wear out in the world, shows us the potential truth of the human condition. Horror is truth, unflinching and honest. Not everybody wants to see that, but good horror ensures that it's there to be seen.”
