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

emotional hopeful informative reflective medium-paced

4.5

 This book captured the exact energy I loved so much in John's videos when I first discovered Vlogbrothers and watched their 2007 backlog. I really appreciate the way John approaches nonfiction writing, especially the way he mixes information and emotion for whatever topic. Honestly the entire time I was like, this would be a great podcast - and then at the end I found out it IS a podcast and has been for three years. Whoops! But that's one of the things I liked best about the flow of the writing - the way it sounded like it could be read out loud really well. My favorite essays were Googling Strangers, Piggly Wiggly, and The Notes App.
