A wonderful work of non-fiction. Frequently makes trade-offs in favor of being informative over being compelling, which may put off lighter readers. For those with a genuine interest in Maine's incredible history, the book is heartier and more filling than a five-course lobster dinner.
A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman

Made me rethink what it means to live. I laughed and also cried. What an amazing book. Difficult to put down and a beautiful writing style.
Give this book a read! It is not expensive and you can get a hard copy on Amazon!

3.75 stars. Extremely fun concept, explored in a beautiful way. Writing is readable and makes complex events easier to follow. Unfortunately, the writing feels a little rushed, and as a result, just not readable. Loved the ending and would recommend to others
