I'm so ashamed of myself for not getting to The Martian yet. :lol:
Cool! I've seen the movie, The Martian, and for whatever reason I can't seem to watch a movie, then read the book - it has to be the other way around for me. I liked the movie though!

We could make it a read-a-long if you want. :)
I'd be up for that! :)

No worries. I'll keep that category for next month and maybe it'll get chosen for May's Genre Discussion! :)

Looks like we have a winner - we'll be reading books in the Science Fiction/Dystopian genre!

Cool! Whenever you're ready (I'm super flexible with my reading ATM) just open a thread for it and tag me in. :D
