The Martian Paperback by Andy Weir

This book was recommeded to be way back when it was still free and only on the Internet. My niece's finacee said it is a must read and he has great taste and reads, like, a lot. So I read the first sentence. Ha! Then the first paragraph. Ha again! And then I was hooked. Who knew reading about someone being stranded could be so much fun. The science was beyond me, but that didn't seem to matter. The characters were terrific. So after a free Internet book, it was papeback and now a movie coming out Thanksgiving time. Can't wait. I just hope Mat Damon is able to keep the sarcasm and wit of the original in his characterization. Fun fun fun.
