Finished Project Hail Mary, and really liked it.
Based on that, I started reading The Martian.

I've watched The Martian several times. I should add that book to the reading list. Haven't read or seen Project Hail Mary... yet.
I just started reading that after seeing the movie in Theatres. Same is what happened with me and The Martian.
I saw The Martian years ago, but I will re-watch it after my wife and I read it.
I wanted to read Project Hail Mary before I see the movie. I read it, then my wife did, and now my daughter is reading it…probably hand it on to my son to read and then do a family movie night!
Birds are dinosaurs. Fascinating book. Example: In 2006, Tom Williamson, curator of paleontology at the New Mexico Museum of History & Science & world expert on mammals that proliferated after the asteroid strike. He took his 2 boys out to a section of the Badlands, New Mexico where bones dated back to 62.4 million years ago. One of his sons found a partial skull and skeleton of something he couldn't identify. He called for help and was told it was a bird - hollow bones, fused tailbone. Turns out they were fossil bones of a mousebird. There are 6 species of mousebird still alive in South Africa today.
You'll learn about the terror birds of South America or Demon Ducks both about 3 meters tall.

the very first novel for the BattleTech universe, Decision at Thunder Ridge.
the mech pictured is a 20 ton Locust (LCT-1V) firing it's small laser. I'm laughing because those are machine guns on either side of the torso and their barrel's are way out of proportion to what they should be.

I'm pretty sure I read that years ago! Blast from the past!
There's been several covers though too. This is the one I remember:
