You have books that make you feel how lucky you are to have savored them.

Backman's book does the same for me (excluding a couple of them).

I want to write a lot but won't because I will not be able to do justice to it

In the end, very touching. The hyperbole really just doesn’t work for me, which is a shame. The character development in this series is so excellent but the writing style isn’t really my cup of tea.

I was so touched by the story of Bobo and his mother passing away. He was such an unexpected and sweet character.

Really liked the story and the characters (although I still don't like hockey), but I really was distracted by the choppiness of the stories broken up by little sayings, some of which were linear and some non-linear. For example, it took me a couple of times to actually figure out what happened during the main climax of the book. Reading this to prepare for The Winners, the latest release.
