WE ARE THE ANTS - SHAUN D HUTCHINSON KARTONIERT...

A Time Best YA Book of All Time (2021)     From the “author to watch” ( Kirkus Reviews ) of The
Five Stages of Andrew Brawley comes an “equal parts sarcastic and profound” ( Kirkus Reviews  
starred review) novel about a teenage boy who must decide whether or not the world is worth
saving.   Henry Denton has spent years being periodically abducted by aliens. Then the aliens
give him an ultimatum: The world will end in 144 days  and all Henry has to do to stop it is
push a big red button.   Only he isn’t sure he wants to.   After all  life hasn’t been great
for Henry. His mom is a struggling waitress held together by a thin layer of cigarette smoke.
His brother is a jobless dropout who just knocked someone up. His grandmother is slowly losing
herself to Alzheimer’s. And Henry is still dealing with the grief of his boyfriend’s suicide
last year.   Wiping the slate clean sounds like a pretty good choice to him.   But Henry is a
scientist first  and facing the question thoroughly and logically  he begins to look for pros
and cons: in the bully who is his perpetual one-night stand  in the best friend who betrayed
him  in the brilliant and mysterious boy who walked into the wrong class. Weighing the pain and
the joy that surrounds him  Henry is left with the ultimate choice: push the button and save
the planet and everyone on it…or let the world—and his pain—be destroyed forever.
