Steven’s Reviews > The Sixth Extinction: An Unnatural History > Status Update

I'm shelving this because the case studies are just too dry for me. I understand why they're necessary, but I'm halfway through the book and we still haven't gotten to the good stuff. Maybe going out to find fossils and coral is very exciting, but to me, it's just not that interesting to read about.

This book gets more and more depressing as it progresses. How fun!

I'm not really enjoying some of the excerpts where she describes field excursions. I get why it's necessary but... It's a little dry. Not sure how she could write these field excursions better though; sometimes archeology is just boring I guess

Humans are terrible actually #justiceforthegreatauk

Seems incredibly depressing, I can't wait!
