The Anthropocene Reviewed

First off, I love John Green as an author. Looking for Alaska? The Fault in Our Stars? Sign me UP. I also love non-fiction so seeing that JG wrote a non-fiction, I jumped at the chance to pick this up.  Now I had ZERO idea what an Anthropocene is (it's the current geological age, btw) but I dove right in. I throughly enjoyed that this was a book of reviews (in essay form) on current inventions, phenomena, societal issues, etc. with actual ratings on a five-star scale.  These essays covered topics ranging from Air Conditioning to the Plague. I enjoyed that the essays included facts as well as personal anecdotes. I also personally love smaller chapters in books; it makes me feel as though I'm plowing through quicker 😬  Overall I give my first completed read of 2022 4⭐️!
