Fredrik Backman is my auto-buy author. I always enjoy his books, and I always love the English narrators. I wish had read this one sooner, so that Bear Town was fresher in my memory. I really enjoyed all of the characters featured in this book, and there are so many great lines in this book that will stick with me for a long time. I cried on multiple occasions, and can't recommend this book enough.
