4.5
reflective slow-paced

Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes

Great read. It was slow paced, but I enjoyed my time with Ove. Never understood the pushy behaviour of Parvaneh and why they became such good friends, but the story itself was well-written. I found this book both fun to read, while also giving me moments where I had to think about life.
