My Grandmother Asked Me to Tell You She's Sorry by Fredrik Backman

5.0

I am so glad I stuck out this book. I had put it down before, and just picked it back up again. As a fan of A Man Called Ove, and with all the great reviews this book had gotten, I was very interested in trying it. I have to say though, it took a while to get into. The fairy stories were almost too much for me at the beginning, I kind of wanted to skip those sections until I realized there were so many of them and they might be more important than just filler from an “almost-eight year old” mind.

It took about 100 pages before I got into the story. But after that, I LOVED it. The people, the relationships, the healing, it was all beautiful. The last 100 pages were just wonderful. You will close this book feeling so satisfied.
