From Our Sumaia’s 5-Star Picks Box

📖 About this Book

My Friends is a deeply emotional novel about friendship, art, grief, and the people who shape us long after they are gone.

Eighteen-year-old Louisa, an aspiring artist, becomes fascinated by three tiny figures hidden in the corner of a famous painting. When that painting unexpectedly comes into her possession, she sets out to discover the story behind it.

Twenty-five years earlier, four teenagers found refuge from difficult home lives in one another. They spent a summer together on an abandoned pier, sharing secrets, jokes, dreams, and the kind of friendship that can quietly change the direction of an entire life.

Their story and Louisa's eventually become connected through one extraordinary piece of art.

❤️ Why Sumaia Recommends It

This is Fredrik Backman doing what Fredrik Backman does best: breaking your heart and somehow making you grateful for it.

I loved how this book explores friendship not as something small or temporary, but as something that can completely shape who we become. It’s tender, funny, painful, and incredibly human.

A beautiful reminder that the people we love leave pieces of themselves with us, even when life takes us in different directions.
