My son recommended this book to me, and I wasn't sure if I would like it as I am more of a mystery buff than a science fiction reader. I LOVED IT! I simply could NOT put it down. AND when I had finished reading the book, I found the audio copy on line and listened to it, just in case I had missed something in the read! It was GREAT! I have also seen the movie and recommend that as well. This book is compelling and every inch of the way you are both rooting for Mark Watney but trying to look into his future and determine if he can get out of this alive. Great read, and I have recommended it to just about everyone!
I have never used Creative Grid products before. But, I saw this set on a YouTube video and it fit the need that I had for an up coming quilt project. It is fairly easy to use, and it was the perfect choice for the quilt I had in mind. Heavy duty, so you don't need to worry about edges breaking down. The finished block is a great effect! Love it!
