Us Against You (2-2) Backman’s style is unique. I always like reading his writing because the narrator always takes an objective view of the story. For this type of story I think it’s perfect because it leaves the reader to draw their own opinions on the story without feeling the bias from the author. This … Continue reading Small Town, Big Hearts

You're not in love, but you don't know what you are And quite frankly you're throughly confused. You don't love him. And you don't like him. It's totally over, but … Continue reading Comedy or Tragedy ?!
