Anxious People

Super well-written, made me cry in the eye doctor waiting room. Backman is a great writer, although the dialogue in the first half of the book felt really cringey. It is translated from Swedish so maybe that's why.

Another book cover complaint–why does this cover make it look like a romance... It's about a group of strangers and while there is a slight romance element it is so minor! This book and my previous read, The One by John Marrs, need to merge their cover designs and meet in the middle.
