A Man Called Ove

The story of the grumpy old man with the good hidden heart has been told many times before, so this book doesn't break any new ground. Having said that, the setting is intriguing and characters are likable, the diversity is interesting, but pushed a little too far to sound authentic. The writing is warm and funny and the book goes by quick and easy. A good read, but I don't think it will have a lasting effect.
