The second title of the Beartown triology left me with mixed feelings. While Backman is able to make me deeply care about the fictional people of Beartown, the writing otherwise left me rather bored because it felt repetitive at many times. I think the book could have been shorter and still telling this emotional story, and even though I have been bored at some times, I am looking forward to reading the last book.
