Artemis by Andy Weir


I recently read this book as a recommendation from one of my sisters! Personally, I was a big fan of it, but I've seen some conflicting reviews online and wanted to gauge opinions from my fellow YWSers!

So, what did you think?

Personally, I was a big fan of Jazz's snark and inner-monologue, but I do know that she grew taxing for some other critics.

1. What do you think the biggest flaws of the book were? What were the biggest strengths?

2. How did you feel about Weir's more technical parts of the story where it gets into the nitty gritty engineering/science-y bits?

3. Who were your favorite characters? (I personally enjoyed Kelvin and Dale, along with Jazz of course.)

4. What did you think about the ending?

I was flummoxed by fractious Franny's decision to abrogate analgesics for the moribund victims of the recent conflagration. Of course, to display histrionics was discretionary, but I did so anyways, implicating a friend in my drama to make the effect cumulative. I think a misanthrope would have a prosaic appellation, perhaps one related to autonomy and the rejection of anthropocentrism. I think they wouldn't think much of the prominence of watching the coagulation of tea to prognosticate future malevolent events, not even if those events were related to jurisprudence.
