"Beartown" by Fredrik Backman

Winning a hockey championship might not mean a lot to the average person, but it means everything to the residents of Beartown, a community being eaten alive by unemployment and the surrounding wilderness. At first, it seems like the team has a shot at fulfilling the dreams of their town. But the day after a drunken celebration following a key win, everything has changed. With so much riding on the success of the team, the line between loyalty and betrayal becomes difficult to discern. At last, it falls to one young man to find the courage to speak the truth that it seems no one else wants to hear.

Registration is not required.
