melodyshobe 's review for:
The Winners
by Fredrik Backman
This trilogy is horrifying. It will break your heart a hundred times and leave you gasping. People are awful and terrible things happen and you just have to wait and watch with your heart in your throat the whole time. This trilogy is also glorious. It will touch your soul a hundred times and leave you gasping. People are amazing and wonderful things happen and you just get to wait and watch with your heart in your throat the whole time. Backman’s writing is beautiful and the way that he just SEES people is incredible. It’s a long book; the story weaves in and out and around until it pulls a single thread and all comes together. I love that; it’s my favorite kind of writing. But if you want him to just get to the point you’ll be disappointed. He never gets to the point— he gets to the heart of things, and that’s another matter entirely.
