There are a couple things about the writing style that annoy me, like how we switched characters when we were still mid-storyline on the other character and we're being explicitly told "wow looks at these lonely people" when loneliness is supposed to be more of a silent companion in life than something noticeable. Since it's a library pick, I'm just going to DNF and return it. Not for me, but fine for others.

I love an unlikely friendship story featuring a curmudgeonly old man and the young people who turn his life around.
