Why an adventure! Andy Weir delivers another captivating page-turner. I devoured this book and immediately sent it to my parents. Sci-fi for the masses, full of aliens and earth-saving drama, this book is not to be missed.. I can’t wait for the movie!

I started reading this book and found that it was not for me. I didn't think it was right to review a book that I didn't finish.

Oh my gosh, this was fantastic. Andy Weir has such a gift, and this book is no exception. He makes science fiction feel like reality.

A fantastic book, on par with his first book, The Martian, and much better than his second book. Extremely good characterization and as with all his books, based on real science.

Follow your favorite science teacher as he tries to save the world by himself, while stranded far from Earth with no clue as to how he got there! Fantastic narration of audiobook by Ray Porter!

Ok finally ready this after skipping it in 2021.

I cannot believe how amazing this book was.
I originally have it one star not as a formal review but because I skipped it last year. Boy was that an inaccurate rating!

I adored this story. I saw all the warnings that it was quite scientific and mathematical but I did think it was overdone. There was just enough to keep you in the know on the science to make the plot exciting.

The character development and humor was phenomenal. I adored the two main characters and can’t believe how much I cared about Rocky, a faceless alien from a planet like Earth.

The whole story was just well done and I can’t wait to see how the movie comes to life. As a non-science fiction reader I can’t recommend this book enough. There is so much human emotion to the tale and the science does not overpower it.

If you enjoyed Weir's Martian book, you'll love this too.
It's about the sole survivor of an interplanetary voyage to save our solar system from an exotic bacteria that is eating our sun.

At a distant star his rocket went to in order to find a solution, he runs into another lone alien tasked with the same problem.

The book is about their unusual friendship.

Good, hard SciFi.

Very solid, fun read. If you enjoyed The Martian, you'll like this. Another story about an isolated protagonist, using science to save the day, but with aliens.

Didn't capture my attention and engagement. Interested in trying it again though and hopefully it will take.

The Martian by Andy Weir was science-y, geeky, irreverent, and a whole lot of fun. Artemis was a little less geeky, a little more about politic and greed, still fun, but without the intensity of The Martian. While Project Hail Mary does not live up to the intensity and humor of The Martian, it does provide an entertaining read and an important reminder that we are all ultimately one world.

Reviewed for NetGalley.

Oh how I wanted to love this. I love Sci Fi / Fantasy and couldn’t wait to dive in. Unfortunately, I struggled to connect with this one from the get go. I put it down and picked it up several times, hoping things would change and that it would all of a sudden be the right time, but alas, it was not. This is simp;y the case of my being the wrong reader for this novel.

Thank you to Random House Publishing Group - Ballantine for the arc.

Andy Weir is just amazing with his intricately plotted, intelligent, compelling stand alone science fiction novels. In this novel we find Rayland Grace on a spaceship, alone and with no memory of who he is or even his name. We get the story through flashbacks and find out that he's humanity's last hope for survival. Once again Weir gives the reader a hero that's smart and we can connect with and cheer for. Thank you #NetGalley for my ARC. #projecthailmary

Overall, I thought this was a good read. The science was a little intense at times, and I wasn't super thrilled with the ending, but I did enjoy most of it and thought it was really unique.

Way better than The Martian. A must read for everyone. I really enjoyed the complex characters and the way the story unfolded.

Amazing. I recommended it to my boyfriend who hasn't read a book since high school required reading. He finished it in 3 days! He still talks about how great it was and how it has gotten him into reading now.

Project Hail Mary is the newest book by Andy Weir (author of The Martian). I read this last year but wanted to still review it here. This book is a stand-alone hard science fiction story set on a space ship. Like The Martian, it features a lone protagonist who must survive his predicament, but in this story, he also must save all of humanity.

I enjoyed this book a lot and found it took several surprising twists that kept me guessing at the outcome until the end. Being a fan of Andy Weir's earlier books (The Martian, Artemis), I did go into this with certain expectations. While parts of the story are told in a non-linear fashion, it worked out well to fill in the gaps in Ryland Grace's memory and give the reader the full story.

The ally that he meets was a wonderful character and I found their initial interactions believable despite the need for fiction to speed these types of challenges along. And I know that I'm being intentionally vague here because I don't want to spoil this for anyone who hasn't read the book yet.

Overall this was one of my favorite reads of 2021! It won the Goodreads Choice award for Best Science Fiction for 2021 and is under development as a movie.

I LOVED this story. I downloaded it from Netgalley but didn't read it for a while because I was afraid of being disappointed after The Martian. I should not have waited. One of the best books I read all year. It is fantastic and I have been recommending it to everyone! Just fantastic.

I enjoyed The Martian and Artemis, but my goodness did I LOVE this book. I couldn't put it down. It was a nice blend of reality based science and pure science fiction with more character development than we saw in The Martian. Highly recommend. Thank you to net galley for access to this book in exchange for an honest review.

Enjoyable story, and I really liked the linguistic aspects. While the plot requires some suspension of belief, I raced through it and liked the ending. A fun read.

I’ve found Weir’s books to be pretty hit or miss, and this one fell a little more on the miss side for me.
