The Martian By Andy Weir!!!

The Martian by Andy Weir

Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. 

Now, he’s sure he’ll be the first person to die there.

After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive—and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. 

Chances are, though, he won’t have time to starve to death. The damaged machinery, unforgiving environment, or plain-old “human error” are much more likely to kill him first. 

But Mark isn’t ready to give up yet. Drawing on his ingenuity, his engineering skills — and a relentless, dogged refusal to quit — he steadfastly confronts one seemingly insurmountable obstacle after the next. Will his resourcefulness be enough to overcome the impossible odds against him?


Review:

I finally read this book after numerous friends told me I HAD to read it.
It did not disappoint. I watched the movie awhile before reading the novel, but I definitely loved the book. There were a ton of laugh out loud moments and it was exactly what I needed during that time in my life. Because really, how can you compare your loneliness to that of a man stranded on Mars? Right, you can't, so it was helpful for me anyways. I enjoyed so much about it but the humor kept me turning the pages even through the shit show he had to endure. I recommend grabbing a copy and devouring it, right now! :)

Emma reviews: IT ENDS WITH US by Colleen Hoover

IT ENDS WITH US by Colleen Hoover The newest, highly anticipated novel from beloved #1  New York Times  bestselling author, Colleen Hoover. Sometimes it is the one who loves you who hurts you the most. Lily hasn’t always had it easy, but that’s never stopped her from working hard for the life she wants. She’s come a long way from the small town in Maine where she grew up—she graduated from college, moved to Boston, and started her own business. So when she feels a spark with a gorgeous neurosurgeon named Ryle Kincaid, everything in Lily’s life suddenly seems almost too good to be true. Ryle is assertive, stubborn, maybe even a little arrogant. He’s also sensitive, brilliant, and has a total soft spot for Lily. And the way he looks in scrubs certainly doesn’t hurt. Lily can’t get him out of her head. But Ryle’s complete aversion to relationships is disturbing. Even as Lily finds herself becoming the exception to his “no dating” rule, she can’t help but wonder wh...
