I'm pretty much fucked.
That's my considered opinion.
Fucked.

I have The Martian and look forward to reading it. The movie was excellent and my husband loved the book. I am in book beginnings. http://terragarden.blogspot.com (you said to leave the URL)
ReplyDeleteSounds really good!
ReplyDeleteI've been wanting to read The Martian after seeing the movie, it sounds like an entertaining read.
ReplyDeleteHere's a case where that picture of the movie is probably far more famous than the book. Sounds good though, hope you enjoy,
ReplyDeleteI haven't picked this one up, but all I hear is great things about it. I also haven't seen the movie, goodness, I'm behind on the times. Hope you enjoy and have a wonderful weekend!
ReplyDeleteBoth the book and movie are on my list.
ReplyDeleteI love this book. It is still a popular book in my library, too. My Friday Quotes
ReplyDeleteI so want to read the book and see the movie.

This was such a great book. I watched the movie again this week. Loved it too! Have a lovely weekend, Freda:)
ReplyDeleteI have been meaning to read The Martian since it was published. I haven't managed to find a time to do it yet, though. I hope you are enjoying it. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteOh, this looks like a great story, soon to be made for a movie. Sounds interesting, as well as the cover art image!
ReplyDeleteI loved the movie, but I haven't read the book. Friends have told me it's as good as the movie -- or better.
ReplyDeleteThank you for hosting The Friday 56.
I broke my own rule and saw the movie (I loved it) before reading the book. I have the book so I hope to get to it soon.
ReplyDeleteI like the dry sarcasm in the teaser! This is a book I've really been wanting to read.
ReplyDeleteI haven't read this yet, but keep meaning to pick it up!
ReplyDeleteI so need to read this book.
ReplyDeleteHahaha ... I guess you say it like it is when you've pretty much got no options! Have you watched the movie?
ReplyDeleteNo. But I will be in the next couple of days. I have it on hand anyway.... just need time.
