Dec 17 - 23, 2017

Artemis by Andy Weir - Jazz Bashara lives on the moon. Sounds cool, but she's too poor to enjoy the lifestyle and makes her living as a porter and smuggler. Then she's hired to sabotage some equipment and finds herself in the middle of a fight to control Artemis, the city on the moon. I was really expecting to like this, I loved The Martian by the author. But this book is filled with a smart-mouth, snarky woman (she acts more like a teenager) who makes lots of sexual comments and thinks she's pretty cool. And there's lots of science and welding. Which I skimmed as fast as possible. I only finished because I wanted to know how Jazz got out of her mess.
