Random pop culture item I’d like to share with the class:
I’ve been thinking about this one a lot. There’s the obvious parallels with asteroids being in the news lately, but that’s just part of it.
It’s hard to explain, but somehow this book about the end of the world is surprisingly comforting. The main character is frustratingly flawed, and the book pulls zero punches (other than the hero’s Batman-like ability to survive injuries, which is borderline comical).
And yet, here’s someone who stares the apocalypse in the face and keeps going with what they believe is right anyway. I was completely sucked in and finished the series in a couple of days.
