A review by the_travellingmind
A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman
4.0
It should not have taken me so long to read this book but here we are.
Initially I really struggled through it. But I have a suspicion that my challenge got in the way. I challenged myself to read 10pages a day for 75 days. It was a mistake if I look back now (I should have rather do a 15-30min a day.)
Had I not focused so much on the challenge and rather just enjoyed the book I would have read at a different pace.
All this being said, at the end the tears were streaming down my face. I laughed out loud and I cried. This says a lot.
I think we all have a bit of Ove in us.
It is a beautiful story and I did enjoy it. It will be a recommendation from my side.
