The Egg by Andy Weir

Posted on October 29, 2018 by Abbie Lu

Had to share this great short story by Andy Weir, he is an amazing Author (if you haven’t read “The Martian” I highly recommend it!) This little super short story is beautiful and thought provoking. It took me less than 5 min to read, but boosted my entire day!

Follow this link to read it right from his website:

  Right! Weir has this amazing capacity to take something mind perplexing and make it so real and down to earth, without diminishing the power and awe behind it…

I LOVED reading “The Martian”. All that problem-solving and all that science (of course I used to be a science teacher!) Loved The Egg, too. Thanks for the link.

Thanks for sharing! I read a story by him last year called Artemis, opened my eyes to the sci-fi genre and definitely worth a read!

I love to read, write, and drink coffee. They are the bread and butter of my soul. I really enjoy discussing books, poetry, and the like. Another huge passion of mine is dancing, and for fun I am an avid volleyball player. I live in the NW and I am a hybrid city/country lover. I enjoy spending time hiking through our beautiful Oregon forests, and riding horses at the family farm. I also equally enjoy strolling the downtown waterfront with a latte, gazing the city lights, and/or sipping a Café con leche at my favorite Cuban eatery. Contact me if you would like me to review any products related to: Books, Poetry, and/or Coffee!
