Had a hard time with this one and I’m not sure I ever figured out why. Initially I thought it was just a bit uninteresting but now I’m wondering if there’s more there. Not sure he writes his female protagonists all that well (which I can understand given you know, he’s not female).
This was exactly my experience with Artemis. I had to stop halfway through because I really didn’t like the protagonist and reading her in first person was torturous for me
I’m currently reading this and am thoroughly enjoying it. However, I’m not sure how much it relates to the “alone in space” angle that OP is looking for.
Also check Weir’s book Artemis. Not as good as the Martian or Project Hail Mary, but still pretty good.

Will do. All of Weir’s other stuff seems to be highly regarded too.
