In this episode, Emmy B and bookstagrammer Heather Clark, @bookswithclarkie , discuss a favorite read by Fredrik Backman "Beartown".
This is a book about a hockey team, a culture and community, friendship, family, and an incident that threatens to tear it all down. The writing and character nuances are brilliant. The themes painful and beautiful. There's so much for the reader here, and we talk about it all. We also hope to share unique aspects of the book that will give you more to think about and more to love!
