Hej Guys It’s Carly
an useless feature of Goodreads is that you can look at the tags people gave books
so, I decided to see what people wrote about my favorite book series,
The Emigrants by Vilhelm Moberg
for those who haven’t catched up with the Fika, The Emigrants is a really epic great book series about this Swedish couple and their kids who emigrated from Sweden to Minnesota. Kinda of an epic book series, except that the old book cover looks like it was drawn by a 5th grader
LOOK AT IT
I WANT TO MEET THE 5TH GRADER WHO DREW THIS
back to the weird tags
Ain’t no way you read The Emigrants in your childhood
I understand if you read it as a teen (I’m 14 and I love this series) BUT YOU SHOULDNT READ THE EMIGRANTS AT 7 YEARS OLD
GO READ LIKE DOG MAN OR SOMETHING WHEN I WAS 7 I WAS READING DOG MAN
At least this guy knows that he his Scandinavian ancestors weren’t Vikings.
it concerns me when people think having Scandinavian Ancestry = Having Viking Ancestry. Being a Viking was a job.
W person for actually knowing the truth of their ancestry
WHY IS THIS TAG JUST SNOW
WDYM BY “SNOW”
This is beautifu;
Ah yes, if this guy could describe The Emigrants by Vilhelm Moberg it is just “Boats”
“b o a t s”
I mean, Technically the truth. littearly half of the book is set on a ship. They couldn’t ride a bicycle or a school bus or a Jet Ski it’s 1850s Sweden
(The Emigrants but everyone just gets a pair of J e t s k i s for the 2nd part because ships are overrated)
HOW COULD YOU ABANDON SUCH A MASTERPIECE
HOW IS THE EMIGRANTS COZY
The Movie is great too. The 2021 movie tho is much better than the 1972
Also, There was a TV Show. There’s also a musical.
The Emigrantsverse is expanding. Run
now we need Mobergland theme park
UPDATE : I looked it up and appearently there was a scrapped idea for a The Emigrants Amusement Park called “Moberglands” and even MIT got involved.
Proof :
my faith in humanity will be restored if Moberglands gets revived
