"We are the Bears. The bears from Beartown." I'll never forget this beautiful story.
chyba nigdy wczesniej nie przeczytalam ksiazki ktora tak bardzo mnie uderzyla
Great finish to a great series. Sad, funny, inspiring, and depressing - this has it all, and I loved getting to see the conclusion to the people we've been with for so long. My only complaint was that it was super long and maybe didn't need to be? That, and sometimes the narrative can come across as a little "know it all".

This series felt a bit different in tone compared to other Fredrik Backman books but I loved it so much. I fell in love with so many characters for different reasons that made me laugh and cry. Along that same theme, this ending was heartbreaking to me but completely fitting for Beartown. It’s a story and a town I’ll be thinking about for a long time.

"All children are victims of their parents childhoods. Because all adults try to give their kids what they themselves enjoyed or lacked. In the end, everything is either a revolt against the adults we encountered or an attempt to copy them. That's why someone who hated their own childhood often has greater empathy than someone who loved theirs. Because someone who had a hard time dreamed of other realities, but someone who had it easy can hardly imagine that things can be any different. We take happiness so easily for granted if we've had it from the start."
