Amazing book that applies capitalism to ecology, conservationism, and nature in general - that I could totally see our future as.  So much fun

I love finding fiction that feels like it grew out of my neuroses too! (see also Weather by Jenny Offill) Funny, entertaining clifi is hard to find and this was fabulous - many other deep thoughts but this works. 

And a nod to the aesthetics, the hot pink, mildly gross cover with a lime green spine is a welcome change from all the Dark Serious SciFi already on my shelf. 

Will be recommending wildly to my coworkers and fellow soldiers working in climate.
