This book is so highly relevant for all that is happening in european countries right now. I found it quite scary while on the other hand hopeful.

I quite liked this book! Not quite as good as the third, (I think?) but I love the writing style. The author does these beautiful repetition phrases and says like a theory and then a story and brings it back to this big idea that I quite like.

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.
