Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir

 


Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission--and if he fails, humanity and the earth itself will perish.

Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it.

All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

His crewmates dead, his memories fuzzily returning, he realizes that an impossible task now confronts him. Alone on this tiny ship that's been cobbled together by every government and space agency on the planet and hurled into the depths of space, it's up to him to conquer an extinction-level threat to our species.

And thanks to an unexpected ally, he just might have a chance.

Part scientific mystery, part dazzling interstellar journey, Project Hail Mary is a tale of discovery, speculation, and survival to rival The Martian--while taking us to places it never dreamed of going.
 


MY REVIEW: 5 Stars ⭐️ 

I loved the Martian, loved Artemis but Project Hail Mary was everything! 

The book starts out with some cray and you don’t want to put it down because you want to know what to know what the hell is going on!! 

The story goes back and forth from the present to the past and how it all came to be. 

My favorite part was when Rocky came onto the scene. I love him so much and if you read the book and don’t love him, there is something wrong with you. 

The book has plenty of science, humor, edge of your seat moments, friendship, the fight for survival, and some wonderful bittersweet crying moments. All of that could just be me. Kudos Mr. Weir for adding another favorite book to my list! 

**Thank you to Netgalley and Random House for a copy of this book.
