5.0

Comes nothing short of part 1. I was hooked. 
I still can't get my head around how every character in this series is a fully fledged human, because there are a lot and I feel like I know them all. Fredrik Backman did an immaculate job here.

5.0

Everything Backman writes feels like the easiest 5 stars I've ever given. Nobody can write characters like him. He can show the good in every one, regardless of how awful he might portray them at first. He does suspense so well in this book that parts were painful to read. He doesn't make things easy and things don't go the way you want, but his books are perfect.
