Fall is in finally in the air and it’s the perfect season to curl up with a good book!! The CPA Book Club has selected A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman for our October book of the month. A quick synopsis is below. Our book club meeting will take place in person on Sunday, November 15 at 1:00 pm. Location is TBD. We will be giving away an autographed copy of Exposure, the book written by Rob Bilott about his twenty-year battle against Dupont. We were so lucky for Rob to speak at our last general membership meeting so this will be an amazing give-away!!! We hope to see you at our November 15 meeting! Please register online or email Kathy Cain at kjc@corsbassett.com. A Man Called Ove
A grumpy yet loveable man finds his solitary world turned on its head when a boisterous young family moves in next door. 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? 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. All of which will change one cranky old man and a local residents' association to their very foundations.
