I can tell this is a good book that I'd like, but the audiobook version was a poor choice for me! As a person who struggles with focusing on audiobooks, I found this to be a bit hard to follow, and I didn't entirely have a well rounded experience by the end. I definitely need to re-read this but through the print version. I love Backman's writing. There were particular moments that caught my attention and I liked them a lot. Backman is great at mixing whimsical fun, witty humor, and too-close-to-home relatability.
