Finished Andy Weir's newest book, "Project Hail Mary", and loved it. I couldn't put it down for 3 days. It's written in the same style as "The Martian", so if you liked that then you will enjoy this. I thought it was better and it is absolutely more gripping than his second effort "Artimus", which was largely forgettable. Apparently there is already a movie in the making for "Project Hail Mary" starring Ryan Gosling, so if you're a book-to-movie nut like me definitely check it out.
Probably my biggest pet peeve with science fiction, and fiction in general, is a deus ex machina. Weir seems to work tirelessly to cover every basis to ensure that isn't the case. His attention to logistics and detail is spectacular, almost to the point where it's the biggest critique of his writing. Personally, I love it.
ETA: going to start putting the genre in the title of the post so people who aren't interested in it don't waste time googling around.
