I absolutely loved this book!!


From a review: Meet Ove. He’s a curmudgeon—the kind of man who points at people he dislikes as if they were burglars caught outside his bedroom window. He has staunch principles, strict routines, and a short fuse. People call him “the bitter neighbor from hell.” But must Ove be bitter just because he doesn’t walk around with a smile plastered to his face all the time?

Behind the cranky exterior there is a story and a sadness. So when one November morning a chatty young couple with two chatty young daughters move in next door and accidentally flatten Ove’s mailbox, it is the lead-in to a comical and heartwarming tale of unkempt cats, unexpected friendship, and the ancient art of backing up a U-Haul. All of which will change one cranky old man and a local residents’ association to their very foundations.

On the shelf! Full of Beans is bookcrosser owned and operated. Stop in and say hello. I've had good luck parking on Pittsburgh.

Found this book in my coffee shop, and I've decided to hold a book club about it!

I loved it! I didn't think I'd be able to connect with an older gentleman character, but I did.

Releasing back into the wild in the Full of Beans bookcrossing zone.

A little late with the release notes, but the book went back to the book shelf at Full of Beans.
