Beartown by Fredrik Backman
dark
emotional
tense
medium-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? Yes
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
5.0
It's already been said, that this novel feels different from his others, but still so good. I only wish I read this sooner and NOT one week postpartum in-between baby naps and feeds. Very relatable thinking "how can I protect my kid from the world?"
Graphic: Rape and Sexual assault
Moderate: Child death
