Do I need to read this one now?
Yes!!!
Yes yes!!
Read Beartown
Is it as good?
One of the best books I have ever read
Yes, it’s excellent.
Love them both but other than style, the books are very different.
Bear Town
Beartown!!!
I’d read Brit Marie was here before Beartown
@Margaret I’m having SO much trouble getting into this one. She is making me crazy. Is it worth it?
I understand, and yes, I think it is worth it.
Ok, I’ll try to stick with it. Thanks!
So good!
Have you read My Grandmother Told me to Tell You She is Sorry. It’s good too.
I read it; I didn’t dislike it; however for me it was the least memorable of his books.
I didn’t love that one either but I was glad I read it before Brit Marie was here. I really REALLY loved that one.
I read this. Liked it
Beartown then us against you
I’m reading it right now. About a 1/3rd in. Really liking it so far. Loving the humor.
Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine… if you’ve not read it already
The Power of One
Rick Bragg, also writes beautifully about his life and family. All Over But The Shouting and Avas Man, were great.
Read his two novellas, too.
Watch the Swedish movie. So good!
I fully understand – how about Eleanor Oliphant is complete Fine
100% agree.. i went the other way round but loved both so much
I read Ove then Eleanor!!
Dark room and cry ?. It may take weeks to get over and you will miss him!
LOL, that reminds me. I had listened to Ove on audio book and wasn’t ready to say good bye to him so I listened to it again.
P.S. While I enjoyed listening to it, it would have been wiser and safer to listen to it while doing something OTHER THAN driving.
I’ve got the print edition on my shelves, plus I think I’ve got the eBook edition, but I just keep ignoring it. I’m a bit “over” cranky old men, but so many people say they loved the story, I’ll re think my resistance.
Reading Ove now..
Me too! I’m about 3/4 through the book. It’s been in my pile for a year, and I finally decided to give it a go. It’s quite good. Ove is indeed “cranky”, but not without reason, and he has so many redeeming qualities!
I just started “us against you” tonight and I’m already on the brink of tears! So good!
Finished it this weekend. I think it may have liked it better than Beartown! I ❤️ Benji
Bear Town
Watch the movie!
have to read it
Good book!
He has a new one
Britt-Marie Was Here. Not as good as Ove, but still good read.
