The Rosie Project by Graeme Simsion Reviews
#79 in Books

Description

A first-date dud, socially awkward and overly fond of quick-dry clothes, genetics professor Don Tillman has given up on love, until a chance encounter gives him an idea.

He will design a questionnaire-a sixteen-page, scientifically researched questionnaire-to uncover the perfect partner. She will most definitely not be a barmaid, a smoker, a drinker or a late-arriver. Rosie is all these things. She is also fiery and intelligent, strangely beguiling, and looking for her biological father a search that a DNA expert might just be able to help her with.

The Rosie Project is a romantic comedy like no other. It is arrestingly endearing and entirely unconventional, and it will make you want to drink cocktails.

    Great book! Good story and an easy read. I would recommend this book to anyone looking for something to read. One reviewer mentioned a resemblance to Sheldon from Big Bang Theory... great comparison! I love Sheldon. I loved this book.

    This book was lovely. If you are a big bang theory fan you will love this book. Its a funny, witty and cleaver. If your looking for a great book to read in the tub or at the beach this is a must read. So pick it up and sit back and enjoy!

    I love this book so much. The protagonist, Don Tillman is a nerd you can't help but root for. Socially awkward, obsessed with schedules, order and logical to a fault. But he is extremely funny, which makes this book highly enjoyable to read. I couldn't put it down. I have since purchased The Rosie Effect, which is the sequel. I hope there is a lot more Don Tillman to come.
