Mark’s Notes & Highlights

Book cover for Beartown (Beartown, #1)
Beartown (Beartown, #1) by Fredrik Backman
3 highlights
If you are honest, people may deceive you. Be honest anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfishness. Be kind anyway. All the good you do today will be forgotten by others tomorrow. Do good anyway.
