Beartown: A Novel | Fredrik Backman

Pickpick

It was every bit as good as it‘s been hyped up to be! Emotionally heavy, but absolutely grabs your heart. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and I can‘t wait for the sequel!

Looking forward to discussing further with the #ListyBuddyRead group.

#Beartown 🐻 🏒

Susanbones I have to ask!! What‘s your take on the two that went pro, one that became a dad and one that died? Who‘s who? 7y
YouReadMyEyes @Susanbones Ah, I‘m not sure! I think It alluded to Benji going pro. I‘m not sure about the others but I hope Amat is not the one who dies 😢 What do you think?? 7y
Susanbones A lot of people are saying it‘s Benji who dies! 😭😭😭😭 Because they think that when David leaves a hockey puck and his watch on the grave, they think that that scene is set in the future and when the bassist (did we ever find out his name?) sees Benji on TV, they think it‘s a death announcement. 😢😢😢😢 I can‘t with this theory though!!! A lot have been saying that in the sequel, a car crash will be the cause of death. 😲 7y

JaclynW I am SO behind! We have a 4 day weekend so hopefully I can catch up and join in. 🤞 Sorry! (Life happens, reading suffers. 😕) 7y
valeriegeary Welp. So far I am epically failing with my first ever Litsy Buddy Read. 😳 This is what happens when I decide to start a 700 page doorstopper the week before February starts! I'm a monogamous reader so I have to finish the doorstopper before I can start Women in the Castle. But I will catch up on all of this soon!! 7y
GatheringBooks looking forward to it. :) 7y
rachaich I've not managed to read this one - real life hook club demanded my reading 😉. However, would still like to read thoughts to see if I can read another time :) 7y
Ubookquitous So the older I get the more likely I am to put down a book that is not doing it for me - unfortunately I called it quits halfway through. I tried the audio and book formats and jus find myself wandering away, Unengaged. I wanted to like this book but I found the characters flat, the tension nonexistent and the structure a detriment to the story. 7y
Ubookquitous I don‘t mind unreliable narrators or even unlikeable characters but I felt so ambivalent about everything and everyone- not good when reading... or in life! Lol 7y
Jess7 We completely understand @Ubookquitous and hope you will join us in March when we read this one. I think it will be really good! 🤞🏼🤞🏼 7y
Jess7 No worries! @JaclynW @valeriegeary @rachaich - sometimes life gets in the way and sometimes the book choice just isn‘t a good fit. We would love to have to join later this month if you‘re able to, and if not we hope you will join us again next month when we read this one: 7y
JaclynW @Jess7 Yes! Thanks! 7y
Debiw781 I‘m behind but catching up now. It wasn‘t catching my interest so o put it aside and now I‘m enjoying it 7y
SaturnDoo I really wanted to like this one but can only read a few pages at a time. After reaching Part 2 it still hasn't sucked me in. Historical fiction is my favorite genre but I find this one a bit contrived and boring. I am reading the comments in hopes of finding something to look forward to but it just isn't happening. Setting it aside for now as it just might be my mood. 7y

A day late on getting my #DecemberTBR picked... It‘s a big stack with two TBRs from last month, a #ListyBuddyRead, 14 from my Scribd pile (3 audios, 5 from last month, 6 new for this month), one new pre-2017 TBR as I continue to try to #readmyowndamnbooks and a Christmas book that I‘ll definitely be picking up. I worked it out - if I can read 189 pages a day, I can make it through them all!
