The Rosie Project by Graeme SimsionMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I enjoyed reading this book. I think in order for someone to enjoy it, they must find the humor in it, and as my husband tells me, I can find humor in a string.
At first I didn't think that I would like Don, a genetics nerd, who lacked social skills. As the book went on, my feelings for him started to change. I next felt sorry for him. Sorry that he didn't have many friends, how he didn't understand how to react to someone making a joke, knowing that someone was making fun of him, to not understanding that not everything must be a project.
When Rosie, entered his life, I was so hoping that she wouldn't be there on a bet. I liked the play between them and how Rosie didn't take Don as a serious person.
The journey of these two main characters was so refreshing, warm, and inviting. I found myself laughing at them, wanting to hug both of them, slap Don upside the head, and cheering for them. I would recommend this book to everyone. It was such a delight to read.
