In this book club episode of Literature on the Rocks, we’re diving back into Anxious People by Fredrik Backman to unpack the perspectives, emotions, and moments that stuck with us.

We debate whether our feelings about the bank robber changed after hearing her full story — did understanding her situation shift our judgment, or were there still reservations? We also reflect on which characters we saw ourselves in, because let’s be honest… this book has a way of holding up a mirror.

From laugh-out-loud chaos to quietly devastating truths, this conversation leans into empathy, connection, and the messy reality of being human.

Full spoilers, honest takes, and a few “wow, that hit too close” moments. Grab a drink and join us. 🥂
