Beartown was a powerful and heartbreaking read that completely pulled me in. The characters were so well written. They were flawed, raw, and deeply human, and the town itself felt like a living, breathing presence. Fredrik Backman doesn’t just tell a story; he builds a world that stays with you long after the last page. Absolutely incredible. Now I need book two ASAP!
