Is it too much to ask that a managed care facility refund a year’s advance payment when your grandfather dies before he can move in? Frank Johnson doesn’t think so, which is why the 33-year-old now lives in a nursing home, locked in a chess-match feud with management that doesn’t occupy nearly enough of his time. When foster kid Elroy is thrust into his life, Frank decides to turn this forced relationship to his advantage - launching a string of absurd decisions, inappropriate behaviors, and unexpected glimpses of tenderness that ultimately turn a New Jersey suburb upside down.

At 53, she’s too young to retire and too old to start over. Then her estranged father’s widow contacts her and asks her to come to Sanibel Island to help settle his affairs.

But behind the cranky exterior there is a story and a sadness. So when one November morning a chatty young couple with two chatty young daughters move in next door and accidentally flatten Ove’s mailbox, it is the lead-in to a comical and heartwarming tale of unkempt cats, unexpected friendship, and the ancient art of backing up a U-Haul.

Publisher's summary
Jack Tate is hopeless....
Everything he touches turns into a disaster, but he means well. His business is even less successful than his love life. His once-thriving coffee shop was on the brink of bankruptcy, but salvation could be right under his nose.
At the insistence of his loyal and underappreciated assistant, Emma, he sees that the last hope of saving his business could be the only customers who’ve not deserted him for the faceless coffee chains - the old folk.
To attract new customers, Jack and Emma set up the Isle of Man’s first dating and social club for the elderly - The Lonely Heart Attack Club. Eager to give his elderly congregation a sense of purpose, he sets them a challenge that may be one step too far: to become World Record holders.
They may be old but there is plenty of life left in them, and Jack soon realises that they're not just customers; they’ve become friends.
Could his unintended compassion to his wrinkly client base also be the catalyst for romance?

I wish I could give this 10 stars. It sent a great message and I laughed out loud so many times I’m certain people thought I was daft. Can’t wait to read the next book! Thank you for the joy.

Made me laugh a lot.
I read non-fiction about 98% of the time, and was looking for something light and easy as a break, and this book definitely lived up to that. Pros: Not enough books involve a full cast of elderly characters so this one helped fill that void. And it was very funny. Cons: The narrator read too fast, but that’s easy to fix with Audible’s speed settings. And at times the book took an overly optimistic turn - it started out with a more realistic blend of events and personalities both good and bad, but kind of evolved in a “happily ever after” direction towards the second half. Still, quite enjoyable and worth the read.
