A review by knoteboom
Beartown by Fredrik Backman

emotional mysterious reflective tense slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.5

This book took me a little bit of time to get into, but once I was there I was hooked. This book is not for the faint of heart and deals with serious themes. Backman did a fantastic job of seamlessly weaving multiple characters narratives into a compelling story.
