A trip like no other

I loved this book from beginning to end. A special bond between grandchild and grandmother with dreams and imagination abound. My emotions went on a roller coaster ride. Want to read everything else this author has written.Read full review...

Grandmother should Apologize for this story!

I rarely give up on reading a book - but this one just annoyed me - so after 2 chapters I put it away. It was
my book club assigned book - and perhaps my friends will all love it - and I'll be the only one out of 8 to dislike
it! With that being said - good luck if you choose to read this one - and I hope you are one of those readers that can give this book 5 stars!Read full review...

Grandmother and the author should apologize fur this book!

Terrible read! Only bought it because A Man Called Ove was so good. Don't waste your money on this one. I'm hoping Bear Town will be a better read.

Such A Wonderful Book!

This is a wonderful and beautiful book. An adult withs imagination and a passion for humanity and feelings will love this book. A teen curious about life and adults and relationships between humans and non-human animals could enjoy this book. I read one other book by this writer, and it was also so good!Read full review...

Fredrik Backman's My Grandmother Asked Me to Tell You She's Sorry

I bought two Backman books and have not gotten to them yet. I read A Man Called Ove and it was awesome. I expect no less from the other two. I also bough Britt Marie Was Here. Can't wait to get to that one yet.. This is why I can't honestly rate the books yet. I expect to give them both 5 stars after I read them.Read full review...

Interesting take on health, life and love

Deep inner meanings can be brought into play, but a nice book with humorous insights to "being different."

One of Backman's best

I got this from the library originally, and I loved it so much I wanted my own copy. Not many books get to be on my book shelf, but this is one. Fredrik Backman writes such a compelling story with rich characters, full of humor, pain, joy, wisdom, and love.Read full review...

Boring and stupid

I bought this for a book club that I am in. I have tried twice to read it, but I just cannot get into it. I do not like fantasy or science fiction, so maybe that is the issue. All I know is that this book is boring. I finally gave up and will not read it. Read full review...
