Britt-Marie Was Here

Britt-Marie Was Here by Fredrik Backman

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Britt-Marie, a socially awkward middle-aged woman, is not likely to bring life to a dying town, or even climb out of her own rut. But she does. The story of how this happens endeared Britt-Marie to me. Fredrik Backman has created a whole town-full of memorable, quirky characters, including the rat standing on the soccer ball on the novel's cover. Britt-Marie Was Here is worth reading!
