I really enjoyed that book and the whole "alone in space" vibe it gives off. Are there any more like it?

EDIT: Jeez i can't reply to you all. I wish there was a way to compile all your suggestions into a Goodreads list, these all sound awesome!

Try the Bobiverse books by Dennis E Taylor. They were my next step after the Martian and we're pretty good.

I also tried out a nice series by Nick Jones following a time traveller called Joseph Bridgeman which was decent, though it does deviate from alone in space to more loner.

That one really gives new meaning to being alone with yourself.

The murderbot diaries is another good one with a loner in space going on adventures
