A Man Called Ove

by Fredrik Backman

I probably wouldn’t have stuck with this book, but a good friend recommended it. Ove is a bitter old man, so it takes a while to warm up to him. But through his neighbors, his story unfolds, and Ove endears himself to the reader and makes this a worthwhile read. A Man called Ove is a charming and quirky story that reminds us to judge less, accept more.
