Such a great story full of characters. A little slow to start, but fun and heartwarming overall. I was pretty teary by the end of it. The first sentence really annoyed me though when it states that Ove is fifty-nine. That's not old. I pictured Ove as a grouchy old man in his 70s or 80s. He reminded me a lot of my grandpa, who likes to grumble but has a heart of gold.
