I think I’ll have a hard time reviewing this, or really, a hard time explaining my reasons for not liking everything about the book. Because I did like it, I did like the main character, I did like the writing, so what didn’t you like, Milla? Well, I didn’t like the last couple of pages. Oh, how I w...
Many of my friends had recommended this novel, and I'm glad they did. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Narrated by Don, a hero who's firmly on the Asperger's scale, knows it, and utilizes that knowledge to make his life work for him, has a project: he's going to get married, and to make it as scientific as ...

Four stars for an easy to read, entertaining and fast-paced book. What's it about? (from Goodreads): Don Tillman, professor of genetics, has never been on a second date. He is a man who can count all his friends on the fingers of one hand, whose lifelong difficulty with social rituals has convince...
'I am a thirty-nine year old, tall, fit and intelligent, with a relatively high status and above-average income as an associate professor. Logically, I should be attractive to a wide range of women. In the animal kingdom, I would succeed in reproducing... However...' Oh, boy! That 'however' is pivo...
What a delightful book! I loved this story and it's unconventional protagonists. There's not much to really say, other than to state that if you want to quick, quirky, smile inducing read, this is your book!! I vote for Steve Carrell and Jennifer Laurence to play Don and Rosie in the inevitable m...
The art of love is never a science: Meet Don Tillman, a brilliant yet socially inept professor of genetics, who’s decided it’s time he found a wife. In the orderly, evidence-based manner with which Don approaches all things, he designs the Wife Project to find his perfect partner: a sixteen-page, sc...
What a delightful book! From the first chapters after being in Don's head for a bit, I knew what his diagnosis was, and what made him so unique. What an interesting idea to write a love story from the point of view of someone with Aspergers. It was so interesting to live in his carefully ordered ...
The Plot: Unconventional genetics professor Don lives a precisely ordered and catalogued life. Blissfully unaware of his place on the autism spectrum (despite a heavily ironic scene where he has to give a lecture on Asperger's to teenagers), he often has trouble relating to people and responding to ...
The Rosie Project was a cute book. Also, at least if you are from the U.S. and have ever seen TV, it is like reading one of Sheldon Cooper's scripts. The main character, Don, is quite regimented and socially awkward, and most importantly, he's fine with that. How he sets out to find an "appropria...
