I would first like to start off with the fact that i usually don’t read sci-fi novels, but this book is the absolute exception. I have never been fascinated by chemistry or astronomy but when the main character, Mark Watney, had to use those elements to survive you just get enthralled into the adrenaline. Also, thanks to the amazing sense of humor that is given to Mark, you want him to survive. I have not read a book that is entirely driven by one single character. The dual perspectives were also a main factor in this because as Mark is making it through Mars on his own, Earth is doing everything in their power to bring him back. You will be captured by the pure humanity of every character and be compassionate of someone you have never met.
