This is a great finale to The Beartown trilogy. It's a little long and starts out slow but what a impactful story. The people of Beartown still feel the bite from the first book and now they want to close down the two hockey rinks in Beartown and Hed. They want to start a brand new hockey rink for both towns.

EadieB So what are the residents of Beartown willing to sacrifice for their home? The main themes of the book are corruption, abuse, rape, politics, power, money, hypocrisy, pure rage. There are plenty of characters to learn about who are good and bad. Some of the characters have come back and some are new. This is a book you need to read in order to get the full impact of the book. 14mo
EadieB If you like books about a small town then you will love this book. I look forward to reading more from Backman in future books to come. 14mo

Andrew65 An excellent ending to the series. As always with Backman a mixture of emotions throughout the book. 14mo
EadieB @Andrew65 It was good but a little bit too long for me. Could have been cut back, I think! 14mo
Andrew65 @EadieB Yes much longer than it needed to be. 14mo
