Has anybody read The Martian? Here great things about it and I need a book to read on my vacation next month.
heard nothing but good about it. i'm not a big sci fi guy, but it's been mildly on the radar, just due to street cred.

thought i'd bump this since it's been 4 months.
The Martian was a spectacular read. Probably my favorite i read this year outside of DITWC.
Read Natchez Burning per a recommend on this thread. I liked it but i felt super guilty for being white afterwards. i picked up the first 2 books in this series by Greg Iles, just to see if i do indeed like the rest of the series, but i hope the whole theme is more found in Mississippi and Louisiana culture, not just racism.
Other books on deck are In the Garden of Beasts by Larson, American Sniper, Dark Places and Sharp objects by Gillian Flynn (gone girl writer) Killing Patton, Killing Kennedy and finishing Wheel of Time.
i'm on book 3 of Wheel of Time now. i have a strong, but most likely unobtainable goal of finishing the series before the year is out.
i also added in a few David Baldaccis (guy is almost as bad as James Patterson when it comes to having multiple series and too many irons in the fire the way he pumps out books,) James Rollins, Brad Thor, Vince Flynns that i've read over the last few months.
