Overview
This two-book paperback set brings together John Green's acclaimed nonfiction: Everything Is Tuberculosis and The Anthropocene Reviewed. In the first, Green follows Henry Reider, a young tuberculosis patient in Sierra Leone, to show how poverty and inequity turn a curable disease into the world's deadliest infection. In the second, he reviews facets of modern life, from the QWERTY keyboard to Halley's Comet, on a five-star scale. Together, the pair blends urgent reporting with reflective, humane essay writing, ideal for adult readers who love science, memoir, and thoughtful nonfiction.

About the Books
Everything Is Tuberculosis: The History and Persistence of Our Deadliest Infection traces Green's relationship with Henry Reider, a teenage patient he met at Lakka Government Hospital in Sierra Leone in 2019. Weaving Henry's story through the science and social history of tuberculosis, Green argues a preventable, curable disease still kills over a million people yearly largely because of choices societies make about poverty and access to care. The book was an instant #1 New York Times bestseller and a Best Book of 2025 pick from NPR, Scientific American, and Booklist. The Anthropocene Reviewed: Essays on a Human-Centered Planet is Green's first nonfiction work, expanded from his acclaimed podcast. He reviews everyday and extraordinary features of our human-dominated planet, from Diet Dr Pepper to Canada geese, rating each on a five-star scale blending memoir, humor, and cultural observation. The paperback adds two essays absent from the original hardcover, and the collection won the Goodreads Choice Award for Nonfiction. Together, the two books show Green's range: one urgent and reported, the other intimate and reflective, both marked by his gift for turning big ideas into human stories.
