How did you like Ove?

I liked it very much. Gave it 5 stars. I thought it was funny but then I felt sad at the end. I watched the movie after I read the book and it was hilarious as well. Recommended it to my hubby because he's looking for a different genre to read besides Fantasy and Science Fiction. I told him I could see an "Ove" in him after a few more years. He's intrigued.

I loved it too! I still haven't watched movie but I'm mad they're remaking it in English. It's so unnecessary!

Oh, are they? Do you know who's going to play as Ove?
