Is anyone on this app as obsessed with Fredrick Backman books as I am? Please I’m so alone 😭 I need someone to tell me they’ve read his books and highlighted every page too😭 My friends don’t like slow paced stories that are 90% unhinged comedy and 10% metaphors for the human condition and it destroys me every day😭

breakfast with a man called ove + a new ceramic bowl i'm in love with

three chapters in, i was finding so many similarities between ove and my grandfather. the stringent adherence to routine, fierce independence and the uncompromising opinion on 'the right way to do things'

just got through the chapter with ove and his father, and i think it will be one of my most favourite chapters of this book. i have an unending affinity for reading about the slow, brewing process of love languages being formed; especially for familial or found family relationships.

overall, a funny read till now; looking forward to the upcoming chapters 🐈

Ove had never been asked how he lived before he met her. But if anyone had asked him, he would have answered that he didn't.

He would have told them that he never lived before he met her. And not after, either.

First 5 star of the year ⭐️

This book just broke me completely. This story is so heartbreaking. A story about grief and how people deal with it and also about found family and love. Even though Ove irritated me at the beginning, I began to love him little by little as the story went on. The way he talked about his wife and the life they had together I felt very connected to Ove more and more. The way Ove slowly accepted Parvaneh and her silly family and how she helped him live a little longer it was just so beautiful. I loved the way it was written, interchanging from past to present. It seemed repetitive at times but it worked for me. This book had me sobbing from beginning to end. I loved it.

“What sort of love is it if you hand someone over when it gets difficult?"

Yesterday, i decided to read this book someone online suggested to me " A man called Ove." It was advertised to me as funny and heartwarming (big BIG understatement), and so i thought it would be a nice break from the depressing stuff I've been reading lately. I didn’t read reviews, summary, or anything because i like to go into books blind. All I knew about the book is that it's supposed to be funny. However, now it's 3 a.m. My eyes are bloodshot, and I'm in bed holding back tears. The book is finished, I couldn’t put it down until i did so, and all i want need is a hug.

"Ove's heart is too big." This is the best book I've read for a good while. It made me laugh. It made me want to cry, and then it did make me cry before making me laugh again.

I don't know if it's the fact that I've been mentally trying to prepare myself for the loss of a loved one, or if it's the way Ove describes his wife, as sunshine and color and destiny - A love that is so strong, so pure and strange it doesn't feel real but it doesn’t feel fake at all - but this book hit me like a bus and i didn’t anticipate that at all.

Absolutely recommend.
