The Martian

I'm having trouble getting into The Martian... did anyone else feel this way? I heard such rave reviews about this book and I'm just about 100 pages in and I'm just not liking it very much. Does it get better?

Re: The Martian

Yes it does...stick with it. The beginning was very technical and I had a hard time getting into it as well, but I ended up riveted and couldn't put it down

I'm about at pg 100 as well. It can get a bit technical but I find it very fascinating, and love the writing style.

I was immediately hooked, but I understand how his isolation makes it hard to write... and to read. Stick with it! It's SO good.

I'm only 50 pages in and I find myself laughing out loud...I skim over some of the technical stuff but really like it so far!

Re: The Martian

I finished this a few days ago! I didn't love it but I did wind up enjoying it more as the story went on. The technical stuff was hard for me to get through but I liked the rest.
