A review by stephs_cozycorner
A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman

5.0

This grumpy old man has stolen my heart.  

Ove is such a beautifully written book with a cast of characters that just felt so wholesome and full.  And I loved that Ove’s backstory is intertwined as flashbacks with the present day.  

Ove is a character that will stay with me for a long time.   He may very well be the most grumpiest miserable man I’ve ever read about but he had such a big heart underneath it all, and it made him who he is.  

Backman has a writing style that you can easily connect with, and he writes such beautiful unforgettable characters. 

I cannot recommend this book enough.  It will have you laughing, crying and feeling all the emotions, and you will walk away loving this grumpy old man just as much as I did.
