Embarrassingly this is the first Stephen King book I have ever read. I'm three stories in, but so far I'm loving it.

@leonivek I actually read Project Hail Mary at the beginning of this year. I think I may have put that one down once…. Finished it over two days.
You seem to have a similar taste in books to me, so I’m open to other suggestions!

I have no idea why I didn’t read this book earlier. It is a fantastic story that kept me reading until I was done (a day and a half!).
I’ve always wanted to take a trip into space, but certainly not if it ends up like Mark’s.

It didn't grab me right away, but at about the 40% mark of this book, I was unable to put it down. I'm unqualified of course, but it sounds like the author did his homework with the science of this story, which I always appreciate.
I am new to Daniel Suarez but, after two books, I am enjoying what I've read.

@daveb Thank you for the suggestion! I’ve been looking for another book to read over the last few days. I’ve added both of these to my hold list.

I have been struggling to find books that catch my interest this year. Once I got a few chapters into this book, I couldn’t put it down.
I haven’t looked up any of Daniel’s other work but I hope the universe has been expanded upon!

Watching the Clock
5 stars
I have been struggling to find a book that could hold my attention over the last few months, but I have finished this one in a matter of days.
I will admit that I was not able to keep up with all of the time shenanigans as well as the author probably intended, but I don't think it was too big a detriment to the book.
Please keep in mind that I am an avid #StarTrek fan, so this is a biased review.
