Not hard enough. Nonetheless, I liked the Mars Trilogy quite a bit although I thought the series steadily declined after the first book. On an unrelated note, KSR definitely has a femdom fetish.

I really like the Martian even though the dust storm was entirely unrealistic. A 300 kph wind would feel like a breeze at .06 Bar.

No need to hedge your bets against peer pressure, if you like it, you like it.
