My Rating: 5 out of 5 stars
Quite honestly, this has probably been one of the best books I've read in a VERY long time. I couldn't put this one down! It had me on the edge of my seat and rooting for the main character every step of the way. There were even times in the book that I actually starting sweating because I was so nervous for him! You felt all of his frustrations and experienced every triumph right along with him.
The main character, Mark Watney, has a very dry sarcastic sense of humor that I loved. It really breaks up the tension in the book and makes you relate to the character more. I will warn you that there is a bit of profanity in the book, if you are sensitive to that kind of thing.
I have been recommending this book to everyone I know....including my husband! haha! He's started reading it and is hooked now too. Definitely a must read!

It's SO GOOD!! A good portion of the book is written in the first person by the way of his daily logs (kind of like a journal entry) I really enjoyed it!
