Just finished this book and since there may be a few space nuts on here (or any recent retirees)😜, I just want to give this a recommendation if you haven't read it already. Hope this doesn't break any forum rules but if I did, feel free to delete.

And something in a different vein again:

Kind of like Fear and Loathing on a small pacific island with scary natives all twisted on kava who happen to worship Prince Philip. Also a laugh-out-loud book!

Wait ... He's not? What the hell have I been doing all these years?

On another note, "The Martian" is required summer reading for all the students and faculty at the school where I teach. Good to know it's recommended by someone who read it for fun!

Well, starting next year, your students might be watching the movie instead 😀

Quite a cast and director ... The studio is obviously backing this to the hilt. Interesting ...
