19: A Man Called Ove - Part One

from Narratives & Nightcaps · host Narratives & Nightcaps

We're BACK with a new narrative this week! Time to start A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman. If you're following along, here is our reading plan: Week one (aka this episode): Chapters 1 - 13 Week two: Chapters 14 - 27 Week three: Chapters 28 - the end TW for these episodes - the readings and our discussions do cover the topic of taking one's life. Please be advised, it is depicted in detail in this novel. In the spirit of Ove (kind of), this book's nightcap is Baileys Coffee. It's simple, smooth, and so tasty. Plus, we learned some neat facts about Baileys on their website: www.baileys.com And since this is the start of a new novel, we did some background research on the author and SWEDEN. BRB - booking our next trip to Sweden now. Special shoutout to the Cosby Community Library in Cosby, Tennessee.
