God Bless My Bookseller Discount (or What I’ve Been Reading) -The Rosie Project - Graeme Simsion
“I haven’t changed my mind. That’s the point! I want to spend my life with you even though it’s totally irrational. And you have short earlobes. Socially and genetically there’s no reason for me to be attracted to you. The only logical conclusion is that I must be in love with you.”
An utter page turner and the most entertaining book I have read in a long time.
This is the story of Don, a genetics professor who is on the Asperger's spectrum as he tries to find a suitable wife. If that's the premise, then you can imagine that this book is funny and imaginative. You would be right. His quirky phrasing and logical thinking tell a love story that is far from conventional.
What makes this story so compelling is probably due to the way it is narrated but also it is action packed! Think delicious cuisine, street fights, cocktail evenings, a ball, a trip to NYC and a quest to find Rosie's genetic father.
Honesty, not a dull moment. Recommend to all.
