challenging dark emotional reflective tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes

  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.5

Such a beautiful and heartbreaking story. For every terrible character there were so many more that I fell in love with. 
I really enjoyed Backman’s writing style/this translation. The ending tied everything together perfectly.
