Sounds silly but what weakened the book for me was the fact that I’ve listened to the Anthropocene Reviewed. And the subjects he chooses there are also Easter eggs/muses he applies here. Some felt fun, like John’s love for Dr. pepper, but others felt abrupt like Ava’s mom singing Aulde Lang Signe to her.
Graphic: Car accident, Confinement, and Mental illness
Moderate: Death of parent
