A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
A Man Called Otto is the movie with Tom Hanks. I hope you got to watch it. As grumpy as the main character, I must admit that this man warms your heart. I had watched the movie and then learned the book it was based on. There was the Audible available for one credit, and now it’s mine to read whenever I want. It is bittersweet and often funny but with wonderful truths woven right in.
J.K. Simmons does the narration, which sounds like Tom Hanks. Same sourpuss grumpiness as in the movie.
I enjoyed the book so much that I needed more, so I looked up the movie, and I had to watch it. I think it was on Netflix.
I highly recommend both ways to enjoy the story.
