Currently Reading: September 20th to September 26th, 2023

    These will be the three books I will be reading/listening to for the week of September 20^th to the 26^th. I read a physical book, a Kindle book, and Listen to an audiobook so I can switch between the three at any time. 

Audiobook:

Book Title: The Martian

Author Name: Andy Weir

Genre: Science Fiction

Release Date: September 27, 2011

Number of Pages: 384 pages

Book Description:

    Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars.

    Now, he’s sure he’ll be the first person to die there.

 

    After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive—and even if he could get the word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive.

 

    Chances are, though, he won’t have time to starve to death. The damaged machinery, unforgiving environment, or plain old “human error” are much more likely to kill him first.

 

But Mark isn’t ready to give up yet. Drawing on his ingenuity, his engineering skills — and a relentless, dogged refusal to quit — he steadfastly confronts one seemingly insurmountable obstacle after the next. Will his resourcefulness be enough to overcome the impossible odds against him?
