I think that's just Andy Weir at this point. I enjoyed The Martian, but Artemis was horrible. Characters were indistinguishable from one another, they were all just Andy trying to emulate the success of the cocky sarcastic hero from The Martian. After reading that I don't think I need to read any more of his work.

It's kind of like junk food. A little bit is enjoyable, too much makes you sick.

Yeah. And he went on and on about his dead crew mates, how sad and depressed he was for them, but he had barely any connection to them besides sharing a single space flight.
