Everything about this book.
How magical it is.
Each character with his or her own story that kept you guessing about who each one was. Little recurring devices like looking things up on Wikipedia.
The narration was spectacular. I highly recommend the audiobook format.

Fredrik Backman has yet to disappoint me. While this certainly isn't my favorite of his books, it's still wonderfully written and has just the right amount of humor.
I read this about a month after losing my grandmother, so the wit and mildly irritating (okay, more than mildly, but they were annoying in an entertaining way) characters were an appreciated distraction.

Depois de ter gostado bastante dos dois livros que li anteriormente do autor não estava à espera deste me custar tanto a terminar.
Com um bom enredo (ainda que não muito elaborado) e com personagens castiços, seria uma boa história se contada com outro tom de narração e vivida por uma criança de 7 anos minimamente verosímil.
