“One morning you wake up with more life behind you than in front of you, not being able to understand how it’s happened.”

This was charming but it didn't hit as hard as A Man Called Ove. They almost have the same pattern but it took me past halfway to truly care about Britt-Marie. But I absolutely loved the ending! Couldn't be any better!
