Even though the subject is very grim, these pages were surprisingly lighthearted, which was a nice change of pace from the darker main story. I found these pages to be quite fun to read about. In between the main story, we read about Henry’s theories on how he imagines Earth will be destroyed if he doesn’t push the button. ― Shaun David Hutchinson, We Are the Ants “Grief is an ocean, and guilt the undertow that pulls me It handles grief and loss in a very powerful and realistic way, and I’d lie if I said I didn’t cry several times whilst reading this book. I love me some character development, and we had loads of that in this book. It’s a very raw and emotional story that’s also very character driven. It handles a lot of important topics and in my opinion, does it well. This is a very powerful book about depression, loss, and finding the good things in life. Because we are the ants, and we'll keep marching on.” ― Shaun David Hutchinson, We Are the Ants The universe may forget us, but it doesn't matter. “We may not get to choose how we die, but we can chose how Life is pretty terrible for him, especially since his boyfriend killed himself, but some things are changing, and Henry is left outweighing the good with the bad, deciding whether or not the world is worth saving. But for Henry, it’s not an easy thing to decide.

He’s got 144 days to make up his mind, and to save it he only needs to push a big red button. Now, though, they’ve given him the choice to save the earth or let it be destroyed. He has been abducted by aliens back and forth for a long time now, but never before have they done anything other than examining him. ‘We Are the Ants’ is about Henry Denton, a struggling teenager who’s got a big decision to make.
