My review of MY FRIENDS by Fredrik Backman is on IG & SG. This is a coming-of-age story about 4 childhood friends escaping their hostile homes, creating a safe world, & plotting an escape for a new artist. It’s about grief, art, friendship & believing in something. I cried thru most of it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 📚💙
