Our first book club selection of the year is Anxious People by Fredrik Backman! In this novel, an endearing group of eccentric characters navigate being thrown together after a failed bank robbery turns into a hostage situation, and then becomes a locked-door mystery. Seemingly opposing elements are blended beautifully. It’s farcical but full of profound insights and shows how strength can be forged through vulnerability.
