This was a really great book, although there were a lot of scientific terms and a lot of parts where I had to read multiple times to understand, this was really a great book. The main characters in the book is Mark Watney, the other crew of Ares 3 and also people at NASA. I learned a lot from this book about space travel, what its like on Mars and a lot of science. I think this book is really interesting and Mark had a few near death situations but he managed to pull through and live. There were also some parts in the book that were really funny. I recommend this book to everyone who likes space travel, science fiction or action.

A Brief Look Inside:
ANDY WEIR'S THE MARTIAN begins when astronaut Mark Watney finds himself stranded on Mars
after an accident with an antenna caused his fellow crew
to believe he had died, and they left Mars not knowing that he was still alive.
The accident caused his bio-monitor computer to break, and he is left with only
The Hab, hydrazine, a generator, and potatoes to keep him alive.
Watney, described as a “competent man,” is not the type of person to give up so easily, however.
He quickly finds a way to grow potatoes in The Hab using hydrazine to create water.
Eventually, NASA realizes that Watney is still alive after seeing pictures of him on Mars.
They scramble to find a way to safely return Watney home...
