Great, warm and fuzzy story of an old, grumpy, contentedly solitary, tidy man who gets new neighbors who happen to be young, friendly, loud, a little messy and determined to pull Ove into their lives. Recently, I watched the terrific movie, Gran Torino. Ove is Clint Eastwood’s character, Walt, from that movie. Read this book and watch that movie!

Meighan

I write short, pithy, book recommendations for family and friends. My best life is comprised of my husband, my boys, my books, a quiet place, a comfortable chair, a cocktail on my side table, and a Vizsla in my lap.
