I love this book! It's a sweet and poignant look at growing old, losing all that you love, and then finding joy and meaning again in the most unexpected ways. The main character is Ove, a curmudgeon old man who just wants to be left alone, but his neighbors have other plans. The author does such an amazing job giving the main character depth and dimension that I almost feel like he's a real person I know and love. The book starts a little slow, but I really got it into it not long after. As the story progresses, it hits all the right notes: endearing, funny, and at times sad. I'm so glad I picked this book up!
