Books like A Man Called Ove? (self.books)

Just finished reading this book, and it was very moving. I've read one other book by Frederick Backman (And every day the way home gets longer), and loved it as well. Please suggest some books in the same style of these books (a bit more feel good like Ove would be great, but fine either way)

I read Anxious People right after or before and liked that one too. I was also on a wholesome book kick for a while. It was closest thing to Man Called Ove that I read maybe because same author.

A Psalm for the Wild Built was very different but great short novella. Her wayfarer series is more sci fi but I loved the adventure through the characters.

Another simple but wholesome read, sort of YA, is The House in the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune.
