This year I am participating in Countdown to 2025 hosted by Lynn from Lynn's Books. Today is day 21 and the prompt for today is Santa’s Snack – a book that was a ‘light read’ between heavier books
I'd never read Fredrik Backman before and now I find myself wondering why, as I thoroughly enjoyed this one!
The trouble all starts when someone leaves a frying pan next to the recycling bin and the apartment building is determined to find the guilty party. Lucas likes to be left alone. In his mind, people are the root of all stress and disharmony, so he is more than a little unhappy when he suddenly finds himself in charge of the growing pile of rubbish! And then things get really out of hand.
I have never lived in a building where there is a body corporate and the associated committees but I know people who do and I have heard some absolute horror stories of how things can go wrong!
I thought this was a delightful short read and now I am determined to read more from Backman.
I am sharing this mini review with the New Release Challenge hosted by The Chocolate Lady Book Reviews and Books in Translation Challenge hosted at The Introverted Reader.
Tomorrow's prompt is Reindeers – a book with memorable critters
