A review by caitlinjadams
The Anthropocene Reviewed: Essays on a Human-Centered Planet by John Green

emotional funny hopeful informative inspiring reflective relaxing sad medium-paced

5.0

This was exactly the right book to for me at this time. I’m very grateful to have had it now and will certainly return to certain essays again and again. None of that helps you know if it would be the right book for you, but it’s the essence of what this book is for me. It matches what I need in this weird time with my particular brain.
