2 authors picked The Anthropocene Reviewed as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I have a shameful secret: I don’t like reading non-fiction. I know!
I’m a teacher and a writer. I should be open to every kind of book. But most non-fiction just doesn’t keep my attention the way good novels do. So when I tell you that I devoured The Anthropocene Reviewed, that is high praise indeed.
John Green’s essays on everything from Diet Dr. Pepper (also a personal favourite of mine) to sunsets are both deeply personal and universal. Read this to see our world in a new, often humourous, way.
I’m not lying when I say that this book saved my life. I was going through a particularly difficult moment when I read it, and let’s say that it made me find the beauty in life once again. After reading The Anthropocene Reviewed, my once monochrome world burst with colors. This essay collection points out ideas about things in daily life that an average person would never notice. It makes you smile dumbly at the ceiling and say, “this world is beautiful.”
