Every time I think this series isn't for me, Backman proves me wrong! I really struggle with some of the views in this series, a lot of the characters are small minded, bigoted, and offensive.

Wonderful!
Great follow up to Beartown; I love how Backman develops his charcters, draws you right into their world immediately. Also love his style, though sometimes it's a bit on the preachy side. A lesson to be learned always.
