I take it back: this book isn’t the least bit comforting. In fact, it’s downright horrifying and upsetting. Also? It never. Freakin. Ends. How long is this damn thing?! I read for 3 hours and progress like 2%. It’s a drag.

Yeah, this book is going on hold. It’s a relentless litany of “here’s the stupid thing that humans did, and then it gets worse. But wait! There’s even more worse than that!” It’s freakin depressing and upsetting, especially in this day of climate change denial and knowing that no matter what you do, you’re not going to make even the slightest bit of difference. Ugh.

I've been really discouraged by all the climate change deniers, political awfulness, and people just being horrible in general. This book is a sciencey look at what would happen if humans just suddenly disappeared. It's quite comforting in a way. I just need to know that the world is going to be okay. Really well-written and interesting too so far.
