I loved the Martian! I wouldn't classify it as sci -fi - would you and why? Are you interested in going to space? While I wish we had a better space program, or a space program, I am happy here on earth. My husband also loved the book, but he wants to go to space...

I would definitely classify it as sci-fi. It's just that the science is real. Why do I classify it that way? I don't know. Subjective call, I guess. It's hard to imagine a story about going to Mars as anything but sci-fi.
