The Little Old Lady Who Broke All the Rules | Catharina Ingelman-Sundberg

Mehso-so

After loving Ove but discovering that he was younger than I thought, I listened to this book with five friends from a nursing home who embark on a life of crime. They are all over 70- so I feel better about completing this prompt of #Booked2018 !! Unfortunately, the book wasn‘t as hilariously charming as I expected... but it was fun to #audiocolor in my Golden Girls coloring book while listening! 😊

JoScho Lol I knew instantly that this was Sophia‘s purse! 5y
tpixie I agree I thought Ovi was so much older then when he ended up being! 5y
TorieStorieS @JoScho 👏👏👏 Yay for my favorite Golden Girl! For St Nicholas Day, my husband got me a chia Sophia! I‘m so sorry excited to grow her hair!! 🤣🤣🤣 5y

TorieStorieS @tpixie I know!!! I listened to the audio and I nearly stopped my car when they said he was only 59!!!!🤣🤣🤣 5y
Cinfhen Congrats!!!i love how dedicated you are 🏆too bad about this book - sounds so cute! I‘ve just unstacked 😂 5y
JoScho @TorieStorieS that is very cool! 5y
TorieStorieS @Cinfhen My pleasure to help out!!! And yes, I read recently that oldest children tend to be rule followers so I had to find older MCs!! 🤣 5y
TorieStorieS @JoScho Yes!! It was a great surprise- looking forward to starting to grow it after Christmas (we host Christmas Eve so I wanted to wait till after that to set it up in case it starts out messy!) 5y
tpixie @TorieStorieS oh fun!!! 5y
tpixie @TorieStorieS me too! I wonder if people act older in the country the authors from. Or just that Ovi is crotchety?!!! 5y
TorieStorieS @tpixie Thanks! Yeah- I think Ove is just particularly crotchety!!! Even in the younger memories, that seems clear! 🤣🤣🤣 5y
tpixie @TorieStorieS 😃😆😂 5y

All done with #booked2018 -here‘s everything I read for this fun challenge....
Really enjoyed almost everything I read (with only a couple of duds!)
Thanks again to our wonderful challenge masters @Cinfhen @BarbaraTheBibliophage @4thhouseontheleft and looking forward to next year....

Cinfhen Which were the duds??!!! 😉😂😂 5y
KarenUK I found the Central Park essay collection a bit dry and dull (was hoping for so much more), and Furiously happy was not a favorite of mine.... @Cinfhen (edited) 5y
