Boring = Bad.As the little sister in "Lair Of The White Worm" exclaimed: "Ooh! Me spotted dick!"'Artemis' read like a Haines manual. The main narrator had no personality beyond hating disco (so I wished death on her from about page five - better than no reaction, I suppose) and then it switched to M...

I seem to remember reading a lot of reviews expressing disappointment with this book when it was first released, but, whilst not perfect, I thought it was actually a big improvement on The Martian, even if our protagonist is only a female criminal version of Mark Watney. It feels like Weir learned...

This started out strong, then the main character, Jazz, started showing the reader why she was known for making poor life decisions and so it got kind of annoying for a while. At least Jazz was annoying. It did redeem itself a little in the end with the way she made up with her father but overall I'...

I have no idea quite how to rate this book so I'm going with 3.5 stars. My first impulse was 4 because I thoroughly enjoyed it, but then I finished it, sat back and actually thought. Most of the plot wouldn't have happened if the main character Jazz hadn't been such a petulant asshole, and pretty mu...

Two reviews in one day? What? And for anyone who is keeping track, I think I've reviewed every book I've read so far this year. Let's talk again in February. Science Fiction is not my jam. I tend to avoid that genre more than I avoid direct sunlight. Then people raved and raved about The Martian....

Absolutely fantastic!! Loved it!!I absolutely loved the last Andy Weir book that I read called "The Martian". This book was a lot like that in the fact that it was set in outer space, fraught with lots of action and plot twists, and there was a lot of humor.Jazz Bashara is the main character of this...

Well that was really fun! Artemis is quite different from The Martian, which I loved, but I genuinely enjoyed it. I loved the concept of how life could work on the moon, but I didn't so love the characters. It kept feeling as if Jazz, the female main character, was a male. As a girl, I couldn't real...

Reviewed at my website.I enjoyed this book.  I haven't read The Martian, but I enjoyed the movie (it is one of my son's favorites).  Jazz is perhaps not as likable as Mark Watney, but there's still plenty of plausible space science (and space welding, which at least one of my followers will enjoy) a...
