Britt-Marie can't stand mess. She eats dinner at precisely the right time and starts her day at six in the morning because only lunatics wake up later than that. And she is not passive-aggressive. Not in the least. It's just that sometimes people interpret her helpful suggestions as criticisms, which is certainly not her intention. But at 63, Britt-Marie has had enough. She finally walks out on her loveless 40-year marriage and finds a job in the only place she can: Borg, a small, derelict town devastated by the financial crisis.

Meet Ove. He’s a curmudgeon - the kind of man who points at people he dislikes as if they were burglars caught outside his bedroom window. He has staunch principles, strict routines, and a short fuse. People call him “the bitter neighbor from hell”. But must Ove be bitter just because he doesn’t walk around with a smile plastered to his face all the time? Fredrik Backman’s novel about the angry old man next door is a thoughtful exploration of the profound impact one life has on countless others.

By Far the Best Narrator of a Book I've Had

Publisher's Summary
In the sequel to internationally best-selling Swedish author Catharina Ingelman-Sundberg's The Little Old Lady Who Broke All the Rules, the League of Pensioners are up to their old tricks, this time swindling the biggest Vegas casinos, outsmarting a gang of young robbers, and evading the Swedish police in the name of elderly pensioners everywhere - perfect for fans of A Man Called Ove and The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel.
What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas - unless you're in the League of Pensioners!
Martha Andersson and her friends are at it again. Having left behind their restrictive senior home in Stockholm, the gang is off to make it big in the bright lights and big money of The Strip. Armed with electric wheelchairs and some well-placed helium balloons, Martha, The Genius, The Rake, Christina, and Anna-Gretta are ready to take a Vegas casino for all it's worth, cashing in on their new favorite pastime: white-collar crime.
But they aren't the only ones looking to outsmart Vegas security systems. The League finds itself inadvertently mired in a diamond robbery and face to face with a gang of young - but dangerous - criminals.
Working together, they may have gotten the jewels and cash through airport security, but now that they're back home will they be able to outfox the robbers and keep the Swedish police at bay? Or will this be one heist too many for the League of Pensioners?
This clever, witty, and devilishly fun sequel to The Little Old Lady Who Broke All the Rules delights and probes by turns and reminds us that we're never too old for a little mischief.

The first book was fun, new and ...well it got me to buy book #2. Save your money. Same story, but slower and annoying. I finished the book just in case it got better. It did not.

Great Continued Story
I really enjoyed the story like I did the 1st one. However I enjoyed the 1st one better partly because it was the 1st time hearing about these Funny Pensioners In the 1st book.And I enjoyed the performance of all the voices the narrator gave.

Liked the story but,....
As with the first book, the story is quite enjoyable and the narrator does a wonderful job. The only issue is the story falls flat at the end. It's almost as if the author was tired of writing the book. Other than that I truly enjoyed the humor of this book.
