Us Against You by Fredrik Backman

3.75

Good book, but a big step down from Beartown. Both books are quite slow, and jump around a lot. In Beartown, all of the time spent developing characters, relationships, and the setting becomes worth it when the book hits its big emotional moments. That book peaks really high, but can be a bit too slow for me.
Us Against You doesn't peak nearly as high. It's the first of Backman's books to not make me cry. As a result, the slowness doesn't feel as worth it.
