Book of The Month: "My Friends" by Fredrik Backman
Editor’s notes: Thanks to my pal, Joe Gibson, for the heads-up on this one. While reading, I highlighted dozens of humorous and poignant quotes—it's that kind of book. Any Backman book is a delightful adventure, but this one is, for me, his best yet.
Favorite excerpt:
The artist, dying at 39, said, “It doesn't matter if you live to be eighty, that's just lots and lots of nows; and one single good now is enough."
"I've had lots and lots of nows. Millions.” Joar says gratefully.
