The Beartown tears are 10/10 relatable. I saw someone on goodreads describe this book as "the best book I've read but never ever want to re-read" and I felt that in my soul.

[@Jeanette_Medina]

That sounds like it was Allen Walker!

[@ash31114]

Using the blanket to wipe the tears, a vibe. Relatable 😅

[@shalidarenee84]

Girl! I am reading The Perfect marriage rn too! And yes, her attraction to the sheriff is so friggin cringy. Like, ‘wtf girl, you just found out your husband cheated, and is a murder suspect. How tf you got time to be attracted to some random? Especially some random dude that arrested your husband?’

[@dmh2633]

Syd, the rest of Beartown gets even more painful. I SOBBBBBBBBBBBBBED at this. Prepare yourself

[@Hillary429]

Love the series idea.. Lexi AKA NewlyNova also loved BearTown and I believe has read all of the follow up books, love her channel so wanted to give her a shout here 🥅🐻🏒

[@shannahsmith6276]

I also adored Beartown! Obviously a difficult read, but could not agree more that Backman just knows how to write hard-hitting stories.

[@whisper_dvm5157]

I read Beartown last year and almost DNFd it in the first 200 pages because all the hockey, small town mundane politics, and so many characters. Boy was I glad I pushed through though. Once the “event” happened I couldn’t put the book down. I alternated between rage and sorrow. That clip of you sobbing was totally me too. The next book is great too. I still need to read book 3.

[@loukiaaydag935]

The Beartown series is the ONLY books of Fredrik Backman that I havent read and he's one of my favorite authors. Im so glad you loved Beartown and I hope you look into his other books because they all destroy

[@alisarobles8000]

I’m glad you gave The Perfect Marriage a chance. Now you know you definitely don’t vibe with her writing. You got through it and I’m proud of you! 🫶🏼

[@lisabrooks178]

honesty just wanna say that you're truly one of my favorite book-tubers and i love how creative and thoughtful you are -- you're always thinking about new video series/content to keep us engaged! ps i love your reading vlogs and I hope you and caleb also vlog a bit of your Bali and Tokyo trip!!

[@gabbyreads]

Love this vlog, what a fun concept!! Lmao Jeneva Rose is also not the author for me so I was laughing at the first pick 😂 I actually liked her new release Home is Where the Bodies Are, I was so surprised haha maybe you could’ve had more success with that one! Also ahhh Bear Town hurts my heart too 😭🥹 such a good one!

[@jeannacata6446]

So, after a Man Called Ove I decided Fredrik Backman was an instant buy but have only read a short story on grief he wrote…but own 3 others. 😅 🐻

[@nikka501]

This was me reading Beartown too. It's been my favourite book of the year so far. I've read the second in the trilogy, it was also a 5 star read for me.

[@theanswerisbooks]

🐻
Have you read Anxious People yet? That one is my favorite of his. Excited for the rest of the series. I love the bracket idea.

[@athenasbibliotheca8099]

I've heard so many good things about Beartown, but I don't think I could read about the topics it covers so I never picked it up. It's great you loved it so much! Hopefully the rest of the series is just as good.

[@sydnee8689]

Oh I absolutely loved Beartown. When I read it I hadn’t heard much beyond pursue project did a video on it. Man was I not prepared for how heavy it was but gosh did I love the story. I still think about it often.

[@JulianaJenkinsofbooksandmen]

I live in Bali and it was very meta hearing you say you're coming 😂

[@banaa9463]

goooood i teared up just watching you talk about Beartown! Backman is such an amazing writer

[@bookish_tai]

The fact that I recommended Listen for the Lie, but picked Bear Town for the brackets because I knew it would win. This book has made everyone I’ve seen read it cry and that’s why I will not be reading it😂

[@susanmcalister2880]

The entire Beartown series was 5 ⭐ for me, have the tissues at the ready.....you're in for an emotional ride. 🐻🏒

[@SamanthasBooks]

I read Beartown a few years ago and I LOVED it, but I never continued on with the series for some reason!
🐻

[@WendyTheGeekGoddess]

I had no idea bear town was a heavy book! I was going to read it for summer because I thought it was a “easy breezy” read but nope…
Great video!!! Watched it all the way through! 🏒🐻

[@Booksandheather]

Ah, hi my Mississippi friend Tai! 🥰 Sydney, same thoughts on Beartown and Backman. He makes me appreciate being a human and what it means to live and hurt and grieve down to my core. I’m a fantasy girl through and through but he’s my favorite author. Loved the video and can’t wait for more!

[@daredevilelegance9296]

If you don’t like Drowning: The Rescue of Flight 1492, then there’s something wrong with ya! It’s about a plane that crashed into the middle of the ocean and the harrowing attempts to save the 8 people still inside, trapped in an air pocket. Just when you think things couldn’t get worse, they do…
Non-stop action. One of my favorite books of all time.

[@VeraFran]

Love your videos! 🐻

[@SuperStrangSshadow]

Telling about what books I've read the same week and during the weekend every friday is somerhing I've ben doing on my blogg for years.

[@lindahuson8451]

This sounds like fun!

[@seraphyna07]

i cried when you did, beartown is just that good.

[@Deeee__]

Love this video idea💕💕
Bear town trilogy was already in my tbr but now I have to read it asap because I love traumatizing myself with excellent books 😂

[@sarawithoutanH]

i've been waiting to see what you thought of the perfect marriage 😂
you said you don't want to sound like a hater and i have to say that you are kinder than i 😂😂

[@user-bf4hg8yv6n]

I am so glad you finally read Bear town! I knew it would hit you right in the feels, especially when you mentioned that you had teared up about 100 pages in, I was like 'omg, this is gonna break her'. I left my heart inside those pages, Frederick Backman is a genius.

[@mychaoticshelf]

I laughed so many times watching this!!! What a great series 😊. And I love letterkenny hahahaah it’s so good!

[@Megan.eco-Instinct]

🐻 *Man* I saw you at the end of Bear Town and was like _I'm going to go buy it right now_ but I know I will look at it on my shelf waiting for the moment I feel prepared. Wow.

[@alysha.k2011]

Love this idea!!

[@kyliepietz]

Have you thought about of doing a series where you read the most popular books from each decade? Would love to watch that.

[@goddessnix444]

you come up with the most fun ideas i love your content.

[@yehwellwhatever]

Beartown is my favorite series of all time and Benji is probably my favorite fictional characters. Also helps that Fredrik Backman is a very nice person. Fun fact: we went to the same high school (not at the same time) and he’s part of a mural with all the other publicly well-known people to have studied there.

[@readwithana]

The Perfect Marriage is the only book I’ve ever given 1 star LMAOOO. I usually DNF when I’m not liking a book that much but had to keep reading for the meme. Literally every sentence of that book is ridiculous 😭 I was laughing at the dialogue so bad.

[@ehdfpropertiesllc4632]

Love this idea! So fun! Can’t wait to see what happens next! 🧸

[@alyssadawn3]

I love this! So excited to keep watching this series 😊

[@sageyevans]

Saw the thumbnail, and clicked so fast. Fredrik Backman is my favourite author, and I'm always down for watching someone else get destroyed by his books
🐻🏒

[@colleengiordano6551]

Marin Ireland did a brilliant job narrating the audio 👏🏻 of Beartown.

[@jupiter4334]

I looooove the idea for this series, can’t wait for the next episode 🐻🐻🐻

[@user-nd7mt5cf3c]

this was so much fun :) I want to read Bear Town now

[@heatherbocks]

excited for this series! Such a fun idea

[@MoJordanReads]

I am SO EXCITED for this series.

[@carolmerciez9226]

🏒this was fun!

[@acciocreativity]

ok right off the bat i have to say: hearing the premise for the perfect marriage…… a wife representing her husband for his mistress’s murder violates several conflicts of interests, aka judge would let that fly at ALL 😭😭😭 even if she’s a public defender they’d find someone else

[@yourhomie1]

ILY

[@kerisbookishcorner2864]

I was so nervous to find out if you would love Beartown like I thought-and so happy you did! I cried often too. I completely agree with the magic of how Backman writes characters and makes everything feel so real. 🐻 🏒 ❤

[@ashleychapman615]

Between Shades on Gray by Ruta Sepetys!! I loved this book so much ❤❤

[@panini4200]

I'm just a little over 70% in beartown right now and now I'm scared to keep reading it after the sob session 😭 if anything happens to Benji I will be broken

[@SyMpHOny893]

the letter kenny comparison made me want to read bear town EVEN more

[@jilltimboe7301]

🐻Reading Winners now 😭This may be my favorite series ever. I grew up in a small town, and am the parent of teen athletes, and have ALL THE FEELS

[@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm]

I need to read Beartown miserably

[@addiedehart8374]

Benji is one of my favorite book characters of all time. I love Beartown. 🐻

[@naghamhossam556]

omg your reatction to Beartown HAHAHAHAHA😂 I am starting A Man Called Ove for a bookclub and so excited. I have a weird question if you don't mind; what are your headphones and would you recommend them for audiobooks ? Thank you

[@SydBookWorrom]

They are TOZO HT2! And I do like them a lot!! Very comfy and many settings for noise cancelling!

[@Jamie-Reads]

I love this series idea 😍 Beartown is magic, but to sooth the pain with laughter listen to Everything My Son Needs To Know About The World by Fredrick Backman! It’s truly hilarious and so short 💛

[@daryanreads]

oh i KNEW you would love beartown

[@goddessnix444]

the sudden tears jumpscare oh my god i'm not reading beartown LOL.

[@lmbk3294]

Strange Sally Diamond is a definite 5 star!

[@lisamorrow1929]

See you next time❤

[@KaylaRoyals1]

I just finished Janeva rose’s new book and to me, it’s her best book

[@JanAgaton]

you 100% need to read Anxious People!

[@SydBookWorrom]

i have!! i gave it a 4✨

[@pamelakibildis1177]

Great Video Sydney and if I can make a suggestion for your next read that you can read outside of this challenge and I think you would really enjoy it It’s Called A History of Wild Places by Shea Ernshaw I Absolutely Loved It Have a Wonderful Day tomorrow and a Fantastic Week Happy Reading 📖😊

[@SyMpHOny893]

the perfect marriage is the only book i’ve ever taken extensive notes on, in a bad way…

[@shalidarenee84]

Girl I am a total crier. So I guess I need to read Beartown 🐻

[@symonemaruyama7142]

Ohhhh Jeneva Rose. I read three of her books because I find her so funny on instagram but holy cow that writing is BAD 😂

[@anamariadelsol7155]

When I saw this video start off with the Perfect Marriage, I knew you were doomed from the start 😂

[@susan_brehm_art]

🐻

[@GraceCatney]

🐻 ❤

[@thisbookbelongstopam]

i haven't watched the video but i am predicting Beartown as the winner THAT BOOK IS AMAZING

[@thisbookbelongstopam]

back after watching-I KNEW IT HAHAHAHA

[@melissaj8384]

🐻⛸🏒 seeing you cry doesn't make me want to read Bear Town --- or does it?

[@notthemostread]

🐻🐻🐻

[@nicholemcmahon3517]

The first 50%-60% of the perfect marriage was meh for me. A perfectly average, forgettable, three-star thriller. But after the 3 stooges-esque debacle that went down in the police station, it absolutely plummeted and I couldn't take anything else seriously after that point. I think I ended up giving it a 1 or 2 star 🫠 I DNF You Shouldn't Have Come Here at like 20%. I love Jeneva so much as a content creator, but her writing is not for me either 😅

[@cariner2835]

🐻🐻🐻‍❄

[@runreaderrun]

Syd being so salty about her own pick has me 💀

[@user-yz6cp2oi6l]

Okay! okay! I am late to the party but….Bear Town is now on order. Kleenex will be necessary ❤️

[@user-yz6cp2oi6l]

It is a kindle unlimited book!!!! Have mercy

[@lisamorrow1929]

🏒🐻😘😘😘

[@shonamann8399]

Beartown = #1.

[@mariahtoast]

🐻🐻🐻🐻

[@mylenefrancois]

Is it realistic that the wife can defend her husband in court ? Isn't she the main suspect ??? That's already too much disbelief for me^^

[@kimbermorrow5502]

I love all of Jeneva Rose books! Sorry you didn't like it

[@larrythelatypus]

going on vacation here soon and have Beartown on my kindle 🏒🏒🏒 I love hockey and winter so I'm ready

[@robinmixon6999]

I love a good gay character. What I don’t like is the trend of ‘insert gay character here.’ I get the feeling that some authors do that.

A Man Called Ove is one of my favorite books of all time. Beartown is on my list to get to this year. I already know I am not prepared 🏒🐻‍❄️🏒🐻‍❄️

[@ArinHoney]

Someone actually convincing me to pick up Bear Town?? 👀🐻🏒

[@spiritedreviewexc]

oh no now im going to have to check out Bear Town. I've been wanting to read it, but i might have to um not read it in public🐻🏒

[@jewelsreads]

🐻 Fredrick backman is one of my favorite authors too. There is really good tv series of Bear Town fyi. 🏒

[@carissa1446]
