The Anthropocene Reviewed
★★★☆☆ This is an incredibly John Green book. The John Greeniest. The most John. The very Green. This book went down like chicken soup and I’m really not mad about it.
Trick Mirror: Reflections on Self-Delusion
★★★★☆ Jia Tolentino is my absolute favourite cultural critic and essayist. She speaks to me and on topics I care about with such acerbic clarity and personality. My favourite essays from this collection…
Ornamentalism
★★★★★ Anne Anlin Chen is my hero. This book thinks through all my deeply personal/political but also academic/curatorial/editorial questions about race in America and proffers so many fertile morsels (some indubitably grotesque, some uneasily beautiful) through which to digest these questions.
