I'm a massive #AndyWeir fan, just on the basis of #TheMartian and PHM. Not actually read Artemis. But the influence he's having on high school students is huge. I've had at least one, per year, sometimes more, of my prefects mention The Martian as an influence in their choice to do science, and I'm seeing more, younger, students being excited by #ProjectHailMary

Unfortunately the "Hail Mary" book ( #andyWeir ) was a very quick read, so that's done and dusted. I should've held back and saved it for today probably.

first time in years i went to the cinema, but i couldn't not watch another work by #AndyWeir. been reading his stuff on his old html site since the day he posted #TheEgg on 4chan all those years ago. I was so excited when he more or less accidentally blew up with #TheMartian because people couldn't figure out how to download a free .epub and so he published it at the lowest possible allowed price on Amazon.

anyway, the #ProjectHailMary movie was great! Only complaint is the "cutify" of Rocky...

I finished reading #ProjectHailMaryBook by #AndyWeir because I wanted to read it before seeing the film.

I haven't seen anything much of the film, because I try to avoid trailers so as to get the full impact of a film.

I enjoyed the book, it was fun and thought provoking at the same time. I guess I should read The Martian some time, I have seen the film.

No spoilers for the #Film please.

#ScienceFiction

I think the most unrealistic thing about Project Hail Mary is the idea that scientific evidence that the climate is going to collapse and destroy humanity would be enough to convice the conservatives of the world that we need to do something to prevent this from happening.

Ich hatte viel Spaß mit DER ASTRONAUT bzw. Project Hail Mary von #AndyWeir. Wie immer hätte ich das Buch als Lektor locker um 100 Seiten gekürzt, aber Weir erzählt durchaus ökonomisch und macht den einen oder anderen Zeitsprung. Zusammenarbeit statt Konflikt, Probleme lösen statt Macht beanspruchen - eine Freude. 🖤

Nach der Lektüre finde ich die Verfilmung umso gelungener, Bad-Times-at-the-El-Royale-Regiemeister #DrewGoddard hat echt ein gutes Drehbuch hingelegt, wow.

Nachtrag zur sehr schöner SF-Film-Sichtung »Hail Mary« Berlin. Mehr Herz und Witz als erster Film »The Martian« nach #AndyWeir. #RyanGosling channelt Chaplin der als Weltraumtramp zusammen mit steinharten Other-Companion nach Heilung sucht und Freundschaft findet. #SandraHüller singt als wissenschaftliche Vernunft das Herzstück des Films, fragt als Oberchefbossin, wann wir lernen mit Herumballern aufzuhören, so dass wir nicht mehr vor uns selbst davonlaufen müssen. ✊ 🖤

Another day, another load of books purchased. I’m quite pleased with this haul. The version of “One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest” with Jack Nicholson on the cover I’m particularly pleased about. It cost me the princely sum of £1.99 from the local charity shop. Also, I’m pretty pleased to pick up a brand new copy of Andy Weir’s latest book for half price from a local bookshop. #books #jacknicholson #charityshop #bookstodon #andyweir #marktwain #kenkesey #physicalmedia

Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir

Hello beautiful people! Welcome to a new review! For this review, I get into Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir, a highly beloved and talked-about science fiction novel. Now, personally, I am not much of a science fiction gal, so I really wasn’t sure what I was going to think. I ended up really enjoying the book (science and math stuff aside) and found the world and the characters to have really shone through, making it such an enjoyable read.

Main Characters:

Ryland Grace: Such an unexpectedly great main character. He’s smart (obviously), but not in an intimidating way. He questions things, messes up, figures it out, and brings a lot of personality to what could’ve been a super technical story. He made this book so much more approachable and, honestly, really fun to follow.

Rocky: I won’t say too much because it’s better to experience it, but one of the best parts of the book. The dynamic here is something I did not expect, and it adds so much heart, humour, and depth to the story.

Eva Stratt: The scientist who creates the mission that Grace goes on often butts heads with Grace on their ideas, but in a respectful, professional way.

My Review

As mentioned, I went into Project Hail Mary not really knowing what I was getting into or if I would like it. I did not expect to love this as much as I did. Sci-fi isn’t usually my go-to, and anything involving heavy math, science, or engineering? Also not my thing. So I went into this a little hesitant, but this book makes it so accessible. I didn’t really understand those aspects of the book, but I also didn’t feel like I needed to to really grasp what was going on in the story. You can feel the characters’ emotions, and that often showed me more than the science and math did. I rated Project Hail Mary a 9/10 rating, and would totally recommend it to people like me who don’t usually check out science fiction, or aren’t usually drawn to those types of stories.

In Project Hail Mary, we follow Ryland Grace when he wakes up alone on a spaceship with no memory of who he is or how he got there. As his memory slowly returns, he realizes he’s on a mission to save Earth from a catastrophic threat that could wipe out all life. As he pieces together what’s happening, the story jumps between past and present, showing how the mission came to be, and how Grace ended up being humanity’s last hope. Along the way, unexpected connections form, and the scope of the mission becomes even bigger than initially imagined. We, the readers, are spun a gorgeous world in space through the eyes of someone who never expected to be up there.

So yes, due to the plot of the book and Grace’s role in it, the book includes a lot of science, math and engineering. Yes, there’s complex problem-solving. But I never felt like I needed to fully understand every detail to stay engaged. The way it’s written keeps things clear enough that you can follow along without getting lost, which made a huge difference for me and how I was pulled into the book. What really pulled me in was how the story unfolded. The connections that are made throughout, especially the ones you don’t see coming, are so well done. It takes things in directions I never would’ve expected, and it just works.

And Grace as a character? Loved him. He carries the story in such a natural way, and you actually enjoy being in his head as everything unravels. He makes the high-stakes, end-of-the-world mission feel personal and grounded.

I will say, it’s a little unsettling how some of the issues in this book don’t feel that far off from real life. Like, it’s sci-fi, but also, not entirely? That added an extra layer of tension for me.

The space aspect was also just really cool. It’s such an out-of-reach concept for most of us, and I loved getting to fully dive into that world and go along for the ride. It felt immersive without being overwhelming.

And the ending? So good. It wrapped things up in a way that felt satisfying and meaningful, which isn’t always easy with a story this big.

I’m also really curious to see how the movie adaptation turns out, whether it sticks close to the book or switches things up a bit.

Overall, this completely surprised me in the best way. Super engaging, surprisingly emotional, and just a really fun (and slightly terrifying) ride through space.

The way it’s written keeps things clear enough that you can follow along without getting lost, which made a huge difference for me and how I was pulled into the book. What really pulled me in was how the story unfolded. The connections that are made throughout, especially the ones you don’t see coming, are so well done. It takes things in directions I never would’ve expected, and it just works.

And Grace as a character? Loved him. He carries the story in such a natural way, and you actually enjoy being in his head as everything unravels. He makes the high-stakes, end-of-the-world mission feel personal and grounded.

I will say, it’s a little unsettling how some of the issues in this book don’t feel that far off from real life. Like, it’s sci-fi, but also, not entirely? That added an extra layer of tension for me.

The space aspect was also just really cool. It’s such an out-of-reach concept for most of us, and I loved getting to fully dive into that world and go along for the ride. It felt immersive without being overwhelming.

And the ending? So good. It wrapped things up in a way that felt satisfying and meaningful, which isn’t always easy with a story this big.

I’m also really curious to see how the movie adaptation turns out, whether it sticks close to the book or switches things up a bit.

Overall, this completely surprised me in the best way. Super engaging, surprisingly emotional, and just a really fun (and slightly terrifying) ride through space.

Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir

Hello beautiful people! Welcome to a new review! For this review, I get into Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir, a highly beloved and talked-about science fiction novel. Now, personally, I am not much of a science fiction gal, so I really wasn’t sure what I was going to think. I ended up really enjoying the book (science and math stuff aside) and found the world and the characters to have really shone through, making it such an enjoyable read.

Main Characters:

Ryland Grace: Such an unexpectedly great main character. He’s smart (obviously), but not in an intimidating way. He questions things, messes up, figures it out, and brings a lot of personality to what could’ve been a super technical story. He made this book so much more approachable and, honestly, really fun to follow.

Rocky: I won’t say too much because it’s better to experience it, but one of the best parts of the book. The dynamic here is something I did not expect, and it adds so much heart, humour, and depth to the story.

Eva Stratt: The scientist who creates the mission that Grace goes on often butts heads with Grace on their ideas, but in a respectful, professional way.

My Review

As mentioned, I went into Project Hail Mary not really knowing what I was getting into or if I would like it. I did not expect to love this as much as I did. Sci-fi isn’t usually my go-to, and anything involving heavy math, science, or engineering? Also not my thing. So I went into this a little hesitant, but this book makes it so accessible. I didn’t really understand those aspects of the book, but I also didn’t feel like I needed to to really grasp what was going on in the story. You can feel the characters’ emotions, and that often showed me more than the science and math did. I rated Project Hail Mary a 9/10 rating, and would totally recommend it to people like me who don’t usually check out science fiction, or aren’t usually drawn to those types of stories.

In Project Hail Mary, we follow Ryland Grace when he wakes up alone on a spaceship with no memory of who he is or how he got there. As his memory slowly returns, he realizes he’s on a mission to save Earth from a catastrophic threat that could wipe out all life. As he pieces together what’s happening, the story jumps between past and present, showing how the mission came to be, and how Grace ended up being humanity’s last hope. Along the way, unexpected connections form, and the scope of the mission becomes even bigger than initially imagined. We, the readers, are spun a gorgeous world in space through the eyes of someone who never expected to be up there.

So yes, due to the plot of the book and Grace’s role in it, the book includes a lot of science, math and engineering. Yes, there’s complex problem-solving. But I never felt like I needed to fully understand every detail to stay engaged. The way it’s written keeps things clear enough that you can follow along without getting lost, which made a huge difference for me and how I was pulled into the book.
