Recently realized my all time favorite novels are tales of survival (list below). Would love more recommendations!

My favorite books, in order of when I read them:

1. The Boxcar Children (Gertrude Chandler Warner)

2. Island of the Blue Dolphins (Scott O’Dell)

3. My Side of the Mountain (Jean Craighead George)

4. Life of Pi (Yann Martel)

5. The Martian (Andy Weir)

6. Station Eleven (Emily St. John Mandel)

7. Project Hail Mary (Andy Weir)

For recommendations, you can assume I’ve read all other books by the authors above.

The particular aspects I love are MCs problem solving, amassing supplies, befriending an animal, having joyous moments doing all of the above.

Thanks! Bonus points if the book has a great audiobook version.
