I really enjoyed Project Hail Mary.
I recently read Artemis by Andy Weir, but the protagonist had so much teenage angst that it was difficult to finish despite its short length. I'll have to try one of his more popular books instead.
I haven’t read Artemis but I’ve seen multiple people say that it is his weakest work. There is no teenage angst in this one.
Didn't know about this, going to go out and get this one, thanks! I really enjoyed reading The Martian by the same author way back when.
Loved it too. Easily most enjoyable book that year.
I ended up reading The Martian after seeing the movie and while poking a hole in the glove was mentioned in the book, I was a bit disappointed that the movie could not resist forcing to going through with it. Felt more silly and unnecessary even when originally watching the movie.
After that Project Hail Mary was a must read when I found out about it and was not disappointed. The amnesia was a bit forced, but necessary for the structure and didn't actually bother me much while reading. Also

one of the best depictions of an alien that actually felt out of this world.
