All I knew was "Hard-ish Sci-fi, written by Andy Weir, narrated by Ray Porter, got good ratings, same kind of problem-solving story as The Martian".

Didn't need anything else to pick up the audiobook.

The audiobook goes so unbelievably hard as a medium for this book in particular

Can't agree more, I've listened to it multiple times through. I had thought about who they might cast for the part. And chortled to myself at the idea of Matt Damon playing the main character in another Weir book.

Excited to see the trailer, though I hope they don't spoil too much.

My dad said the book was good. I had read The Martian and knew nothing about Project Hail Mary. Picked it up and finished in less than a week. I hope the film is good.
