Whew! And - Hurray!

Geez, I know how it ends and yet I am still so freaking tense!!!!! The words on the page haven't changed since the last time I read it, so why am I scared!! I'm at 93%, just breathe and read thru squinted eyes, lol.

I'm glad I'm doing a re-read for many reasons, the biggest reason as it turns out is due to how much I'd forgotten. I thought I remembered the story well, and I do, but the nitty gritty, it's like reading the book again for the 1st time.

Even knowing what I know, I'm still tense!

Doing a re-read because the book came up recently and it's been a while, plus the movie is coming out soon. I want to enjoy the story in its pure form before potentially being ruined by cinema.

Wow, this was really good, fun, and tense. I, eh-hem, jumped to the end to see what happens then went back and read the rest. This is a very interesting plot and like in The Martian heavy on science speak but mostly they dumb it down in the next sentence. This would make for an interesting limited series tv show. Hollywood, call me up if you want to do it right. ;)

This is funny funny funny!! As to be expected with Andy Weir.

I am intrigued and want to know more! This could be another winner.
