PICK OF THE MONTH

Our pick of the month is Fredrik Backman's My Friends. This book had me laughing and crying on the same page. I was fortunate to see Backman in a live stream interview in May and receive an autographed copy of this book. My favorite series by Backman is The Beartown Series and if you haven't read A Man Called Ove, you haven't lived a full life yet. Step into any of his books and you will know what I'm talking about - He's one of the greatest story tellers of all time.
