On March 29 at 2:30 we will discuss Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir.

A lone astronaut must save the earth from disaster in this cinematic thriller full of suspense, humor, and fascinating science. Ryland Grace, a junior high school science teacher, is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission—and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn’t know that. He can’t even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he’s just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company. And with the clock ticking down and the nearest human being light-years away, he’s got to do it all alone. . . Or does he? 

Part scientific mystery, part dazzling interstellar journey, this adventurous tale will have you laughing out loud one moment and clutching your chest in awe the next. 

Save the date: On April 26 we will discuss The Lion Women of Tehran by Marjan Kamali.
