The Martian, by Andy Weir

That being said, why are you using camelcase with "re-read"? That's what the hyphen is for.

I didn't quite get into the martian, but project hail Mary... I'm savoring when I have the time and headspace to read it again.

I loved that one too, can't wait for the right time to read it again

Yeah, and before that he wrote “The Egg” and a lot of other short stories.

Check out his other writings if you like seeing how he went from writing a webcomic to full time author

Acshually, that's Pascal case.

Well your comment certainly just sent me on a bit of micro–rabbit's hole. Haha.

Fun fact: depending on the source, pascal case is either a distinct type of casing from camelcase or is a sub-type of camelcase. :P

 

 

Source for the "subtype" scenario: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camel_case

 

The more specific terms Pascal case and upper camel case refer to a joined phrase where the first letter of each word is capitalized, including the initial letter of the first word.

 

The practice has various names, including:

. . .

PascalCase for upper camel case[17][18][19] (after the Pascal programming language)

 

 

Source for the "distinct" scenario: https://www.freecodecamp.org/news/snake-case-vs-camel-case-vs-pascal-case-vs-kebab-case-whats-the-difference/#camel-case

Pascal case is similar to camel case.

The only difference between the two is ...

This. So much.

The Martian was the first and to this date only book that I've read and, when I was finished, decided to re-read right away.

Love all Andy Weirs stuff. I've read the Martian four to five times now (lost count) I've also read Artemis twice and am currently re-reading Project Hail Mary.

Even when you know the ending the way there is still always fun another time.

Also I've re-read the Dirk Gently books since I just love Douglas Adams
