There’s a wealthy bank director who has been too busy to care about anyone else and a young couple who are about to have their first child but can’t seem to agree on anything, from where they want to live to how they met in the first place.
The captives include a recently retired couple who relentlessly hunt down fixer-uppers to avoid the painful truth that they can’t fix their own marriage. Looking at real estate isn’t usually a life-or-death situation, but an apartment open house becomes just that when a failed bank robber bursts in and takes a group of strangers hostage. And of course, if there are any others of his that I should read! Here’s the synopsis: If you’ve read his other books, let me know what you think about this one compared to his previous stories. Such a creative story with a truly wonderful ending.
I thought he wrote the characters all quite well-all district and a bit lost for their own reasons. There’s definitely a quirky, and somewhat, random nature to it and I liked how everything ends up coming together in the end. This is actually the first novel I’ve read by Fredrik Backman and I so enjoyed his writing.
