Book Club: Artemis by Andy Weir (and Cuban food!)


Details
This month we're reading "Artemis," by Andy Weir, the author of "The Martian" and "Project Hail Mary," which many of us really enjoyed. Finishing the book is encouraged but not required, as long as you don't mind hearing spoilers.
Here's a summary of the book:
Jazz Bashara is a criminal.
Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent.
Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down. But pulling off the impossible is just the start of her problems, as she learns that she's stepped square into a conspiracy for control of Artemis itself—and that now, her only chance at survival lies in a gambit even riskier than the first.
Get the book: If you can't get it at the library, I have a free Kindle file which you can find here and the audiobook online here.
The restaurant: Caribbean Twist has some good cheap eats. Try an entree and two sides from the hot bar, or a Cuban sandwich. I made the event a little earlier than usual since it closes at 9. (If the night carries us further, we can grab a batido or a Cuban coffee at Havana 86 just a stroll away. It's open late).
