Heaven is For Real by Todd Burpo: A Little Boy's Astounding Story of His Trip to Heaven and Back documents the report of a near-death experience by Burpo's three-year-old son Colton. Colton told his parents he left his body during an appendectomy and authenticated that claim by describing exactly what his parents were doing in another part of the hospital while he was being operated on (Good Reads, n.d., para. 2). It has been adapted into a movie and is currently available on AppleTV!
A Man Called Ove by Fredrick Backman. Ove is the quintessential angry old man next door. An isolated retiree with strict principles and a short fuse, who spends his days enforcing block association rules that only he cares about, and visiting his wife's grave, Ove has given up on life. After a boisterous young family moves in next door and accidentally flattens Ove's mailbox, an unlikely friendship forms. It is also a Swedish comedy-drama film (watch the trailer here), which soon will be a major motion picture starring Tom Hanks (2022). P.S. I just saw the trailer and realized Ove is pronounced as ǔːvɛ; please forgive my mispronunciation :D
