Bears over Bears

Bears in all their shapes and forms and across genres (this includes sentient teddybears and memoirs). If not friend why friend-shaped?! As long as the bear is plot or character relevant the book can land in here. Feel free to recommend books to be added (maybe also tell me why you think the bear functions as relevant for the story). We bear bears!

The "Shady Hollow" series would fit on here as well! It's a cosy mystery series about woodland creatures. An investigative journalist who is a fox investigates murders and other mysteries, with the help of a police bear. Highly recommend đŸ»đŸŠŠâœš

This is the bears we’re talking about when we’re choosing to hang out with them alone in the forest!
