AN EASY 5 STARS!!!!

People had always said that Ove was bitter. But he wasn't bloody bitter. He just didn't go around grinning the whole time.

This was the second book written by Fredrik Backman that I read, I love his writing! I especially enjoyed this book, made me laugh most of the time!

I love how Ove was grumpy but nice all the time! It's understandable why Parvaneh's daughters liked him. I mean what's cuter than a grumpy old man with a cat following him anywhere😭
