Humans by Matt Haig

Imagine an alien visitor arriving on Earth, tasked with wiping out humanity’s greatest achievement—yet slowly discovering that our messy, imperfect lives might be the most beautiful thing there is. In The Humans, Matt Haig invites us into the body of a Cambridge mathematician, just as he cracks a universal code, only to be thrust into the world of wine, rock music, colors, love, and family. What begins as a mission of erasure becomes a journey of belonging, wonder, and the fragile joy of being human. This is a book for anyone who’s ever stopped and asked “Why us?” — and found, in the answer, a soft glow of hope. It’s perfect for those searching for a heartfelt gift, a big idea wrapped in a warm voice, and a story that lingers long after the final page.
