Quite simply, I loved this book! I completely fell in love with all the characters but especially Ove. He has recently lost his job and his wife, who was the love of his life, and at the start of the book, has decided to commit suicide and join his wife. All his best laid plans go awry, and his meddlesome neighbors just won't leave him alone. Parvaneh, who is pregnant with her third child, moves in across the street and doesn't cut Ove any slack. This is a heartwarming story of life, heroism, grief and the power of the human connection. I highly recommend this book and look forward to discussing at my next book club meeting.
