We passed!
GYRL Monthly News & Updates
Thanks to your support and your determination to get out to the polls EVEN during a blizzard - WE PASSED! We will now receive partial town funding and will be able to continue offering year-round services to the community.

However, the work isn't over yet!

In order for us to keep our town funding requests low we have to supplement with our fundraising efforts! We have The Annual Summer Sizzle right around the corner (funny to think of that with snow still on the ground!) and we need your help! If you are interested in volunteering to help make this family fun event a hit please email your librarian today!
 


 
Thank you for your support and all your hard work!

The question begs to be asked...
Is the movie as good as the book?
 
Join us in viewing this acclaimed movie based on a novel and see what your answer is....

   
"Stepping from the pages of Fredrik Backman's international best-selling novel, Ove is the quintessential angry old man next door. An isolated retiree with strict principles and a short fuse. He spends his days enforcing block association rules that only he cares about, and visiting his wife s grave. Ove has given up on life. Enter a boisterous young   family next door who             accidentally flattens Ove's mailbox while moving in and earning his special brand of ire. Yet from this inauspicious beginning an unlikely friendship forms and we come to understand Ove's past happiness and heartbreaks. What emerges is a heartwarming tale of unreliable first impressions and the   gentle reminder that life is sweeter when it's shared. One of Sweden's biggest locally-produced box office hits ever."

Viewer Review:
"One of my favorites books has now become one of my favorites movies. Very faithful and loving film adaptation. Follows the book probably more than any other film verision of a book I have ever seen. Funny, heartwarming, heartwrenching, everything you felt during the book, you will feel watching the movie. Even the housing development was how I pictured it. The acting is wonderful, especially all three actors that play Ove. The young adult Ove looks so similar to the present day Ove you can believe the actors must be father and son. Parvaneh is wonderful also, would love a sequel written about her and her family."
