pick4 Stars • The Answer Is No by Fredrik Backman is a quick, funny read that‘s pure Backman—witty, warm, and a bit absurd. Lucas, a grumpy introvert, just wants to game and eat pad thai in peace, but a rogue frying pan in his building‘s recycling room sparks a hilarious mess of nosy neighbors, petty apartment board drama, and even a cult calling him an angel. ⬇️
Back online after a long long time
Well I was in a slump, insta slump, reading slump and what not.
Finally 1st read of 2025 , though a short story, it felt like a hug we need.
Backman's stories starts where I don't feel like continuing but by the end it's all smiles.

I reread #Beartown and #UsAgainstThem by #FredrikBackman yesterday, for the first time since 2019 (when I also visited Stockholm), and today I found the Swedish original in a bookstore at the Centralstation 🇸🇪. I also saw a lot of other Swedish translation, and I really hated the covers. Apparently, they like real people on the covers 🙃.

I really enjoyed the plot of this story and the writers style but I just didn‘t enjoy the characters very much.

When do you not want to finish a book? When you can feel what‘s coming like an express train, and don‘t want it to happen. When characters you have grown to love over three books are in grave danger.
This book and all the Beartown books suck you in and put you through an emotional wringer. Going in! 😢😭🤯😱😳😬🫠
