Das ist das großartigste Buch, das ich bisher gelesen habe. Es hat alles, und noch viel mehr. Ich wollte nicht, dass es endet! Ich habe gestaunt, gelacht und geweint.. Ich liebe es 😍

Tolles Buch! Lustig, emotional, gruselig, geile Charaktere und Chemie zwischen ihnen, nur manchmal etwas in die Länge gezogen durch zu viel Wissenschaft und schlauen Gedankengängen. Klar wird es dadurch nochmal deutlich realistischer aber ich persönlich hätte es nicht in dem Ausmaß gebraucht und das Ende war mir zu weit hergeholt und konstruiert. Aber ey trotzdem richtig starkes Buch

This book was a tension... Finally a story that i was achinggg to come back to every spare minute! I started reading because of the hype, the famliar author of the Martian (the movie i liked) and the upcoming movie to watch. I also wanted to try out sci-fi as a usual fantasy reader. I was not expecting much, but received way more than expected! The first thing is humor. God my whole highlights are Grace and Rokky joking) And it is very easy to understand (as a non-native english reader) and relatable. Grace as a character was also relatable to me) Just like him i sometimes recall random facts lol Rocky lierally broke my heart - the best!! And the science element is very comprehendible. Still even if you didn't understand some sort of theory - i found it not that necessary, i personally was not left behind. Very emotional, very nice characters, simple and fine writting. 5 stars easy <3

Absolutely captivating. I meant to read maybe a few chapters a day, but in the end I finished the book within two days, literally neglecting other important stuff in my life because I was so captivated. It's hard to put the book away after finishing a chapter to take a break, because you just want to know how the story continues. And the ending is just what I had hoped for.

I really enjoyed this book. I like the authors style, and the narrator/main character is really funny. It is a bit slow paced, but it worked for the story. I also loved how sciencey it was, and the author does a great job of making it understandable. And the ending omg…. A wholesome book.
