When I first read the blurb and added this book to my tbr, I told my sister about it. Her immediate response was something along the lines of "do you really want to read a monologue about some guy in space?" This discouraging comment had me thinking whether I actually wanted to read it or not. I kept it on my tbr though and decided to take a look at it some other time.
I am so glad her comment didn't discourage me from picking it up after all! Well, I was scared about the lonely-man-in-space monologue, so, I decided to try out the audiobook instead and I don't know if that made a difference, but I loveddd it! The narrator was hilarious and just the tone of the entire book was so well done when compared to the crazy things that were going on. Overall, such a wholesome experience! Apparently, the book is in the talks for a movie and I am very excited to see how they put it together!
