A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This was a great read. A man named Ove pronounced ooova, is widowed. Six months after his wife died, he was made redundant at his job and he decided that life was not worth living without his wife and his job.
On the surface he is a very grumpy old man, but when a new family moves in next door with two young girls, a lack luster husband and a pregnant wife, things gradually begin to change.
A thoroughly enjoyable book, highly recommended.
