My friends book cover - 3 kids swimming

Fredrik Backman does it again, serving readers a tragic but also uplifting tail that brought me to tears. This was by far the one I thought was going to end in all tragedy, but had a strong light at the end of the tunnel as community was formed in the midst and via the heart wrenching tragedy found throughout the book.

You should read his other books A Man Called Ove and Anxious People both of which I can recommend highly enough.
