Interesting. I to almost abandoned Ove. The guy was too much of an asshole. Just over the top. But for some reason I stuck with it and finished the book.

I mean I'm a grumpy, foul mood person most of the time, but I'm not an ass about it. I'm still nice and kind to people.

Haven't read any others by the same author.
