22 - The Rosie Project, by Graeme Simsion
WHY I PICKED IT: Saw it in a book store
ELAPSED TIME: 4 days
RATING: REQUIRED READING
This (quick read) is a lovely little story. Told in the first person, Dr. Don Tillman is a genetics professor who has a brilliant mind, but very limited social skills. At age 39 he decides to embark on The Wife Project - a questionnaire designed to help him identify a mate. Rosie Jarman is not that person, failing to pass the threshold requirements on several fronts. But she needs help from a geneticist to identify her father... and so The Wife Project gets put on hold in order to pursue The Father Project.
Not going to ruin the book with more detail. If you're looking for a light summer read that will leave you with a smile on your face, read this book :)
This blog is a simple review of every book that I read... For all books I’ll tell you why I picked it, how long it took me to read it, and give it a rating (burn it, not good, meh, good, very good, and required reading). I ask (encourage?) all readers of my blog to post their thoughts of any of the books in my comments :). Thanks!
