Wow. This book has been on my book shelf for four years and now I've finally read it.

I love this take on man vs. wild. I also loved the protagonist and his comedy commentary. If I were ever in a dire situation, I feel like I would also make jokes and swear to keep myself together.

However, the science mentioned in the book lost me a little bit but it was still enjoyable. Especially at the end. I don't think I've ever felt more anticipation and excitement for an ending.

I shared the same feelings of the protagonist all throughout. And the story itself is amazing.
