My only criticisms are that for a book that claims to review the Anthropocene it is obscenely American in perspective (despite a couple of essays being on non-American topics/stories); and that, if you've followed John Green for a few years, even if you don't listen to the Anthropocene podcast, a lot of these stories will be at least familiar to your ears.

The way John Green manages to write about seemingly everyday actions or items and relate them to the grand scheme of things in life and living is exquisite.
I recommend this book to everyone. I am certain you will find at least one of these reviews to relate to. If not the reviews, the notes pages and recommended section of 'also by this author' offer some good bits too, of course.
I am now unsure whether to continue with Turtles all the way down or one of Hank's books or rather space them out a bit so that I can enjoy them fully.
I give reading 'The Anthropocene Reviewed'experience wonderful 5 stars.
