Story4.5 out of 5 stars 35
Looking at real estate isn’t usually a life-or-death situation, but an apartment open house becomes just that when a failed bank robber bursts in and takes a group of strangers hostage. The captives include a recently retired couple who relentlessly hunt down fixer-uppers to avoid the painful truth that they can’t fix their own marriage. There’s a wealthy bank director who has been too busy to care about anyone else and a young couple who are about to have their first child but can’t seem to agree on anything.

Sensitive and sweet

What’s wrong with that? Nothing really except we aren’t allowed to be sweet anymore in this life. We are too busy pretending to be important. Backman writes with lovely humour and great empathy. Well worth reading
