En samling morsomme, rørende, smukke og ind i mellem meget personlige essays fra John Green, som tager steder, begreber og produkter – og en vis pandemi - fra menneskets tidsalder under kærlig behandling. Vi kommer rundt om så forskellige ting som Pingvinerne fra Madagaskar, internettet, solnedgange, teddybjørne og meningitis, og Green kalder selv bogen en form for mini-memoirer. Teksterne handler dog lige så meget om at være forelsket i den verden, vi lever i og om at kunne se det smukke i de små ting på trods af pandemier og postmoderne stress.
