“Godspeed, little taters. My life depends on you.”
Oh my, easily five stars. I was little bit sceptical about the humor that it would be too much and it will end up lame. But in a very long, long, loooong time the book actually made me laugh. And it was this amazing book! Matt Damon as a Mark Watney is just such an excellent choice.
Just from the first sentence I was immediatelly hooked. I already knew how it would end but I needed the details that didn't get to the movie adaptation. And honestly, being in Mark's head through his unfortunate adventures on Mars was so much fun. The way this character was written is simply amazing, the reactions in some situations were pretty realistic, funny and on point.
“Yeah, that's right, Mars, I'm gonna piss and shit on you.”
