Fredrik Backman is one of those authors whose works I am always on the lookout for. I have read two of his books before: Beartown and A Man Called Ove. While Beartown did not have any lasting impression on me, the same cannot be said about A Man called Ove.

A very interesting take on life is portrayed in the book. I had a hard time putting the book down since the book is absolutely splendid. I wish the author wrote another book regarding the lives of all the characters.
