A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman is a look at one man’s transformation from a grumpy old man, to a slightly less grumpy old man. It’s the transformation that makes this such an outstanding book, and one that I will be thinking about for a very long time. After the death of his wife, […]

Anxious People by Fredrik Backman was just a lot of fun to listen to. It’s different and so well written. I found the book to be heartwarming and hopeful. The main message that I got out of the book is that people are mostly good, and that’s exactly what I wanted to hear. This is […]
