This was fine. I found the protagonist irritating and had trouble telling many of the other characters apart. 

I think part of what I loved about Weir’s other books was that the main character was busy problem-solving things in interesting ways and this was mostly an emotionally immature non-astronaut having feelings. Weir clearly struggled to write a woman of color character and it comes off as awkward and cringey (though not nearly as bad as some other male authors 🙄) like, what was with the <spoiler>reusable condom</spoiler> subplot? 

Skip this one.
