This book was quite hard for me to read cause I just kept thinking about my cat, the sort of cat that will give you one look and you'll already know exactly what she thinks about the situation, and I miss her so bad. And, well, the whole suicidal MC thing was a part of it too, but mostly the cat for some reason.
But yeah, Backman is really good at writing about difficult topics and still making you laugh in the meantime. I felt things, a lot of things, and generally had a good time after all I think. The Cat Annoyance is the best character (easy job for a cat) but Ove is really fun as a character too, and so are the others in this book.

I can join the people recommending this book to others, just be aware that there's like. A LOT of descriptions of suicide attempts.
