APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
This irresistible love story revolves around Don Tillman, an Australian genetics professor whose rigid daily schedule, painful fashion choices, and inability to make small talk or sugarcoat the truth explain his lack of a romantic partner. But Don’s a brilliant scientist, and he devises a questionnaire designed to find his ideal partner: a nonsmoking, punctual, and fit women who never makes a fuss about selecting the right ice cream flavor and likes to drink in moderation. Unlike his unapologetically strange protagonist, author Graeme Simsion—a former IT consultant—exhibits a great deal of emotional intelligence. The Rosie Project is an exceptionally fun read, full of complicated, delightfully lovable characters, sparkling dialogue, and touching scenes that capture the awkwardness of courtship and the free-fall thrill of finding love where you least expect it.
