Story
Jennette McCurdy was six years old when she had her first acting audition. Her mother’s dream was for her only daughter to become a star, and Jennette would do anything to make her mother happy. So she went along with what Mom called “calorie restriction,” eating little and weighing herself five times a day. She endured extensive at-home makeovers while Mom chided, “Your eyelashes are invisible, okay? You think Dakota Fanning doesn’t tint hers?” She was even showered by Mom until age sixteen while sharing her diaries, email, and all her income.

Story
What makes “cults” so intriguing and frightening? What makes them powerful? The reason why so many of us binge Manson documentaries by the dozen and fall down rabbit holes researching suburban moms gone QAnon is because we’re looking for a satisfying explanation for what causes people to join - and more importantly, stay in - extreme groups. We secretly want to know: could it happen to me? Amanda Montell’s argument is that, on some level, it already has.

Publisher's Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
A deeply moving and insightful collection of personal essays from number-one best-selling author John Green, adapted from his critically acclaimed podcast.
The Anthropocene is the current geological age, in which human activity has profoundly shaped the planet and its biodiversity. In this remarkable symphony of essays adapted and expanded from his groundbreaking podcast, John Green reviews different facets of the human-centred planet - from the QWERTY keyboard and Staphylococcus aureus to the Taco Bell breakfast menu - on a five-star scale.
Complex and rich with detail, the Anthropocene's reviews have been praised as 'observations that double as exercises in memoiristic empathy'. John Green's gift for storytelling shines throughout this artfully curated collection that includes both beloved essays and all-new pieces exclusive to the book.

I give The Anthropocene Reviewed.. 5 stars.
As an avid fan and lover of both John and Hank Green and vlogbrothers for many years, this book has extensively made me feel more connected to the brothers. The premise of this book is unique and filled with wonderous experiences that John articulates in an encapsulating way. Reading (or listening to) this book encourages the reader to investigate their thoughts and actions in the Anthropocene as experienced daily.

The philosophy of anxiety
Great book. I don't usually swing at the short story format but loved this. This book will make you cry, stare at clouds and stars and feel deeply about everything for a week or so.

The Anthropocene is what it is
This is an amazing and quiet original look of the anthropocene. The translation from podcast to audiobook is great, although I really liked the “end credits” of the podcast. That is the announcers yelling for a goal or the prolonged bird songs.
But nonetheless, I give the Anthropocene Reviewed … five stars!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!
This was not what I expected. I guess I was expecting the authors perspective about the current world climate, politically, geographically, as well as economically. I was pleasantly surprised to see it as more a memoir of events that have contributed to the author's mind set. Absolutely loved it! Emotional, comical, logical! it had everything I have been needing lately. John Green, I thank you very much for expert narration and I will continue to follow you.

I cried and laughed and now feel less alone.
this book made me reconsider and consider a lot that we just don't day to day. written through the pandemic and read during the pandemic makes this a special book and reading leaves me feeling less alone.

I give the Anthropocene Reviewed, 5 stars.
Put simply, this is a beautiful book. Full little journeys which we get to spend with a man I thought I could not admire any more than I did, until I read this book.
