Can you guess what book this is based on the author and the book cover? If you guessed Anxious People by Fredrik Backman, you’re correct!

Summary

Let’s set the scene: there’s a would-be bank robber who ends up in a hostage situation, there’s a bridge that people have jumped from and people have tried to jump from and gotten saved, there’s therapy and police interviews and through it all you’re left wondering: who the hell are these people and how are their stories intertwined?

Review

I absolutely loved this Fredrik Backman book! I fell in love with the writing style when I read My Grandmother Asked Me To Tell You She’s Sorry, and this book did not disappoint. I had seen Anxious People all over Bookstagram before my hiatus, and though I could only pick it up every so often between school and my internship, I was finally able to finish it on my most recent vacation and I just cannot recommend it enough! Quirky, fun, and incredibly deep, this book will have you laughing and crying the whole way through
