Beartown

I can't believe I'm saying this about a contemporary novel, but this is absolutely one of my favorite books of all time. Top 10 if not Top 5.

I did not know what this book was about, other than a small town that loves hockey, and I honestly believe that was the perfect way to go into it. The way Fredrik Backman handled every aspect of this story, from the big moments to the most subtle, is superb.

I can't adequately express my thoughts about this book. For now, I'll just say I loved it and you should read it.
