Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir got me out of an almost 5-year reading slump. I devoured that book over the course of 4 days. I've now finished four more books since this summer and that's quite an accomplishment considering my free time is essentially at zero these days.

I'm not really a Sci-fi lover, but I'm thinking about picking this up. I've seen some quotes/snippets and they were surprisingly funny.

The great thing about the author is that he makes sci-fi easily accessible to the casual reader and his books are always full of humor. You don't have to be a sci-fi fan to enjoy the book. I always recommend it to people if they are curious. If you don't want to borrow it from your library, the audiobook is also fantastic. It won "Audiobook of the Year" so it's absolutely worth a listen!
