I thought the Hail Mary narration was delightful.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I love audiobooks but I am so picky about narrators that I will turn it off and then maybe never open that book again in any format because it has been POISONED. So it can be risky!
I'm supposed to be going back to the office 5 days a week in June though, so I'll definitely be stepping up my book and podcast listening time.

5 days a week! Ugh. I’m sorry.
I keep looking at Project Hail Mary and thinking that maybe I won’t read it but I’m pretty sure there’s no reason behind that, just me being weird. Y’all liked it?

t, I bounced off his other book after the Martian, but enjoyed Hail Mary, I think it was much more like the Martian. So depends on how you felt about that book, I guess.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
-t, I bounced off Project Hail Mary, about 1/3 in, it didn't have the humor that The Martian did. It's still in my Kindle library, so I may try it again someday.

We did it for my book club a couple of months ago, and it wasn't a struggle, as I enjoy Weir. I felt the audio added to the story.

Thanks! I forgot there was another book in there, now I kind of remember trying a sample and not wanting to go on with it. I’m probably just mixing the two up. Good to have y’all’s input to consider next time it floats up as an option
