this took me a while to really get into, but when I did I sure did. definitely cried like a baby when I finished, and I was at work in front of a coworker.

Ja ich fand es ok. Man konnte es lesen, stellenweise hat es Spaß gemacht. Aber insgesamt alles irgendwie nicht originell genug, nicht gut genug geschrieben. Weiterempfehlen würde ich es nicht.

I finished it in less than 5 hours and cried 7 times. It was devastating and I want everyone to read it. Fredrick Backman knows how to write characters who are imperfect but good. It reminds me of Up and The Best of Me which are some of my most reliable tearjerkers. I’m a sucker for old men who reluctantly open their heart to idealistic young people after the tragic loss of their wives. Sue me!

Absolutely phenomenal. This book definitely left an impression on me, I don't regret buying it and I will always carry a bit of Ove with me everywhere I go.
