“That light we see is burning in my hall. How far that little candle throws his beams. So shines a good deed in a naughty world.” - Shakespeare as found in the book Anxious People
I was looking forward to reading Anxious People because I liked other books written by Backman and it did not disappoint. It’s a mystery. It’s a comedy. There is relationship drama. There is a failed bank robbery and then a hostage situation that turns into a “locked room” mystery.
I enjoyed its twists and turns.

As the story opens, Iris is determined to sneak out in the middle of the night during North Carolina’s first snowfall of the year with her best friend and neighbor, Daniel. Things seem pretty magical, until they stumble upon an abandoned grave of an 11-year-old girl named Avery.
That night sparks a lot of really weird occurrences in Iris’s life--strange nightmares, mysterious open windows, and her sister’s new “imaginary friend.” Iris and Daniel soon find out that Avery was buried in a segregated gravesite, left to be forgotten, and her spirit is seeking revenge. Will Iris and Daniel figure out a way to seek justice for Avery, and will Avery’s ghost ever find closure? A timely ghost story that explores racism, segregation, and grief in an age-appropriate manner. For fans of Just South of Home and Spirit Hunters.
Recommended for Grades 4+
