I made an error and dodged this book when it was first being promoted. I'd assumed that any humorous book in which the hero is a neuroatypical man would source its laughter at his expense. I should have had more faith. What Graeme Simsion has managed to achieve is a perfectly formed RomCom which ...
I’d been meaning to read this novel for a while so I was glad we read it for book club. As a whole, I enjoy this novel. I found myself laughing throughout the novel and I was totally absorbed into Don’s Father Project. I thought the idea of their original projects were a bit odd and I was glad that ...
For more reviews, check out my blog: Craft-CycleThis is a hard one for me to rate. There were things I liked and things I didn't like. I didn't know anything about this book going into it.

But despite its weaknesses, while I was reading this book I did ...
I'm hitting another block when trying to talk about the last few books I've read, because here's another batch of very overdue takes on some good books (and one not). --- The Rosie Project by Graeme Simsion This was charming, witty, and had plenty of heart -- even without the romance, which just ...
This book!! This book had me smiling all the way through. Loved it!! The best part was that I picked it to read for my own pure enjoyment, without a review being necessary. Perfect! Going on my All-Time-Fave shelf. Read an excerpt for The Rosie Effect and I can't wait to read the actual sequel. A re...
