Fun story-I couldn't read this...just couldn't. But I did love “The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time“.
My boss at the time was the exact opposite and couldn't get into “Dog“ for the same reason I couldn't get into “Rosie“.
It takes all readers!

Don is a quirky man whose social conventions differ from most of us. He establishes a method by which to search (scientifically) for a wife, and tumbles down a rabbit hole of unexpected variables to his research. I can‘t wait to read the next book in this series!
This was a cute story ❤️❤️

I had such high hopes for this book as everyone always seems to love it and recommend it. I‘ve been planning to read it for years and now that I finally got around to it, I was bummed out. It was not as endearing as Eleanor Oliphant or The Kiss Quotient, and a bit slower, too.
#ISpyRomanceBingo @Clwojick @TheAromaofBooks I found to bingo spots. I only have one more to get. Unfortunately, I was not able to finish reading it in time for the #FabulousFebruaryReadathon @Andrew65. I did get halfway through, though.
What a wonderful book! It's a cute romance 💓 with a really good guy who is socially awkward. I was rooting for him all the way. As you can tell, this book got me another spot on my #FebruaryISpyBingo, @Clwojick @TheAromaofBooks. My Canadian Flag is red and white like the book cover. #LitsyLoveReads #LoveAthon23 @StayCurious
It‘s been one of those crappy days that calls for ice cream 🍦 for supper since the hubby is at drill!!
May tomorrow be better ❤️

Don is so funny!! I‘m dying laughing 🤣
First book for my library's new book club! This was pretty cute and an easy read. I was invested in the story and characters, even if they did make me cringe sometimes with their actions. Looking forward to the rest of the series.
Y‘all know I can‘t predict what I‘m going to read, but this is one on my #FebruaryTbr!!

Starting this one for #twofnbc (a book club on Facebook) excited to be joining a buddy read and this has been on my shelf too long! It‘s The Rosie Project ❤️
Are there any Big Bang Theory fans?! Don is just like Sheldon!!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I thought this scientific romantic comedy was cute and fun! Don is a lovable, genuine, admirable character. I loved the focus on the gifts his differences bring and the celebration of diverse perspectives. 🎧
Just what I needed right now - lighthearted with dry wit. Starting the next in this series of three later today.
Don Tillman, the MC, is this very straight forward, logical, and blunt in his honesty. I absolutely fell in love with the dialogue. I just couldn't help but giggle and laugh at some situations for the way that they were described and the conversations that ensued.
Plus the narrator was just perfection! Like chef's kiss perfect! His accent was just great to listen to and I want to hear more from him.
A solid 4 star read!
I‘m starting this book now and I‘m really excited. I enjoy reading classics and other literature but sometimes I just want to read something more lighthearted. I hope I can relate to the main character because I have aspergers as well so maybe I will see some of myself in him or vice versa.
This is my 3rd time reading this (the 2nd and 3rd times for different book clubs). I gave it 5 stars the first time around, and I suspect that was mostly due to the ending. The 2nd time and this time around, it‘s a 4 star read. It is quite enjoyable and amusing. I listened to the audio this time, for something a bit different, and thought the narrator was quite good.
Bill Gates shares his summer reading list. I found it really interesting that it included graphic novels and quirky romance books!

Need some lovin right now 😝🤦♂️
Rating - 4/5 @TheAromaofBooks April #bookspin
If you're looking for an easy breezy hilarious rom-com book to fill you with warmth, this is for you. The book is very funny filled with adorable instances of social awkwardness and utter cluelessness of Don in his wife-finding project. I found him quite irritating at first but I couldn't help but fall in love with the character and all his subtle and not-so-subtle quirks and all his innocent antics.
Aww, totally adorable read and great in audio! Rom-com at its best. I was thinking of Sheldon (Big Bang Theory) all the way 😂

Very very cute quick romantic comedy about an unlikely relationship. I read this after a pretty heavy read and it was perfect. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Merry Christmas everyone!!! 🎄💚❤️
I loved this love story! I especially enjoyed the process the protagonist went through to analyze and understand his emotions—especially for a person accustomed to structuring his life and behaving in ways that allowed him to separate his feelings from his self. This was a fun read.
There‘s a cycle, there‘s the train but I‘m waiting for the bus. 🚌

Simply put, I very much enjoyed this book! ❤️
#SongsOfSummer Don Tillman isn't very #Smooth, but Rosie falls in love with him anyway. ❤

This was delightful! Told from the perspective of a man who is clearly on the autism spectrum and in search of a life partner, it was quirky and highly amusing. Knowing people on the spectrum personally, I found the protagonist to be both accurate and endearing. This was a sweet, charming read.
I started listening to this audiobook earlier today, and so far I‘m loving it! ❤️
This is perhaps the only romantic comedy book that I have ever enjoyed. Simsion wonderfullly managed to keep the book strictly funny and that was the highlight of the book for me.
The plot of the book is the quest of a man to form a scientific theory for love and of course, failing miserably yet hilariously😂
I‘m so glad that I finally listened to this book! My mom raved about it to me years ago (so I‘m using as #mmdchallenge #recommendedbysomeonewithgreattaste) but I never got around to picking it up. What a charming story with the most lovely characters. It made my heart feel happy.
I had previously DNF'd this because of a lack of interest. I decided to try it again because it fills some of my harder prompts. After about 50 pages I started to get into it and didn't want to stop reading by the end. I'm glad I gave it another go. Don is a great character.

I really enjoyed this book.
Don was a great character. I smiled a lot as I read Don doing and saying things just as my son would/does.
❤
A sad quote from Don...he's evaluating himself here.
It's sad this is how many autistics feel.
When your sticker matches the cover. ❤️❤️❤️
I adored this little book. Highly recommend it for a delightful, upbeat read. Perfectly charming MC, albeit unique, whose quirks are adorable. A brilliant geneticist who navigates the social world of dating as a neuro atypical person. Simply lovely. #MountTbr
This #AudibleSale is dangerous to my wallet, and I‘ve only looked at a few pages of books so far! 🙈💸💸 #BookHaul
This is the kind of book that months after reading it, your heart will continue to miss it. The character development was wonderful and Don will forever remain a favourite of mine. I laughed, cried and loved it the whole way through.
