Fredrick Backman did not disappoint yet again.
While slow at first, the story managed to capture my attention wholeheartedly. This book follows a 7 year old named Elsa in a semi-mythical adventure where she has to deliver apology letters from her grandmother to other people.
What I loved most about this book is the side-character and the exploration of grief, acceptance and forgiveness. The author reminds us readers of how it is important to acknowledge both the faults and the positive traits of the people in our lives
The book explores mature themes from a child's perspective which definitely made this and interesting read.
