A review by batcrooks
Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir

4.0

 The way this guy writes is somehow so condescendingly dumb on top of the most satisfying high concept scientific stuff. the characters are all such doofuses. it worked great in The Martian because it was mostly just the one character (also a doofus) writing a fun diary and not as much interpersonal dialogue. but it's fun speculative alien science and i'm gonna read it all. later on something happened that i didn't expect that was also very fun. it ended very cutely. but what a funny thing overall
