i enjoyed this book even though I would resoundingly call it "engineer's porn." The number of obstacles overcome by clever problem solving did become ridiculous after awhile, but I did like experiencing the careful methodology and planning involved. I should do more preplanning myself. I tend to rush into things.
The author focussed very little on people. For example, Weir gave very little idea of what anyone looked like. He is a techie through and through. I look forward to seeing how they've humanized the story in the movie. The fact that the protagonist has a great sense of humour will definitely help the effort.
