Fredrik Backman recommends
Hope and Destiny (2025)
(Hope and Destiny, book 1)
Niklas Natt och Dag
"This grand piece of historical fiction, set in the fifteenth century, has everything you could wish for in a story: kings and rebels, betrayals and murder, a heartbreaking romance that seems destined for destruction."
When the Cranes Fly South (2025)
Lisa Ridzén
"A tender tale about aging, our own and others, and the quiet brutality of love. About what being a man is, and what being a human is, about fathers and sons and fathers and dogs. It's really a book for anyone who's had to say goodbye. The kind of book you give to someone when you're really trying to say 'I've been thinking about you' but don't know how."
The Details (2023)
Ia Genberg
"THE DETAILS is about relationships, about love, about parents and children... about all of it. The little observations about being young, and about growing up, and about getting lost by accident, and getting lost on purpose, searching for yourself in everyone else - damn it, I've underlined half of the book. I wish I could write like this."
