I am not going to lie.
I did not expect to like this book.

I was totally prepared to be fully
underwhelmed…
to push my way through it,
to force myself to finish it through gritted teeth
and bitter irritation.

I was
totally wrong.

It was soooooooo good.
Seriously, that many o’s…
soooooooooo good.
The writing, the words…
the way it made me tear up unexpectedly…
the crush I had on Benji…
and also how the author so skillfully
shifted my anger at different characters
and then made it melt away
without me even realizing it.

It made me think a little of one of my
favorite movies…Mystery, Alaska…
again….just the small town hocky fever idea…
but…it made me want to watch it again.

Anyway….read Beartown.
I hear there’s a sequel (*clapping hands excitedly!)
I also have “A Man Called Ove” but it’s still on the “To Be Read” pile…
