Would you recommend this to people who don't normally like John Green? I haven't been a huge fan of his fiction outside Fault in Our Stars but the glowing reviews for this book are tempting me to check it out

I’m only ~4 chapters into it, and while it definitely feels like a text written by a millennial man at times, I think it not following a particular story narrative, and mostly being a collection of essays about different topics, is enough for me to say that it’s quite different from his other books. If you’ve read The Anthropocene Reviewed, it’s quite similar to that

I’m sure there’s a preview option for the first chapter, you should give that a shot and see if it’s not your vibe.
