I enjoyed reading this and flew through it very quickly. However, it took a loooong time for Britt-Marie to grow on me, she was very irritating for at least half the book. It was also a bit dramatic towards the end. But the kids definitely redeemed the character cast and I did like Britt-Marie’s journey to self actualization! Overall I enjoyed the trope done in A Man Called Ove better.
