I disliked this book so much I couldn't actually finish it. Extremely, excruciatingly painful. Got halfway before I gave up.

Beautiful. Funny. Clever. Heartwarming. Comforting. Compassionate. Absolutely loved it, Fredrick Backman’s writing is stunning and captures so much of what it is to be human. I was close to tears by the last page. Love a happy ending.
