4.0

A book about all the different forms love can take, romantic, familial, platonic and more. The book is heartwarming and heartbreaking in equal measure with a good few laughs thrown in. The characters are lovable, diverse and well written. 

If you want an easy read, that’s still emotional in all the right ways then Ove’s story is a must read.
