A delightful collection of essays detailing the highs and lows of the human experience
Daniella T. - 5 years 2 months agoJohn Green's recollection of both personal and historical experiences in our current age of the Anthropocene is thought-provoking, funny, and at times emotional. He began writing this book in the beginning of life amidst COVID-19 and he brings a much needed hopeful perspective in an otherwise daunting time. I found myself laughing, crying, and in the end, looking forward to the future. This book felt like a phone call with a friend who I haven't spoken to in a while, but we pick up right where we left off.
