The Rosie Project - Graeme Simsion
Product Description(Amazon.com)
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, scientifically valid survey to filter out the drinkers,
the smokers, the late arrivers.
Rosie Jarman possesses all
these qualities. Don easily disqualifies her as a candidate for The Wife
Project (even if she is “quite intelligent for a barmaid”). But Don is
intrigued by Rosie’s own quest to identify her biological father. When
an unlikely relationship develops as they collaborate on The Father
Project, Don is forced to confront the spontaneous whirlwind that is
Rosie―and the realization that, despite your best scientific efforts,
you don’t find love, it finds you.

MY THOUGHTS: This is my book clubs book for January. I have heard of this book through the book grapevine, but didn't think I would like it. But I was really surprised I did like this book. Very interesting characters and the story line was funny and romantic. I give this book 4......
This book is also for 2 of my reading challenges. The Color Coded Challenge and The Full House Challenge.
I wasn't sure about this one either when I started it, but listened to it on audiobook and loved it! Enjoy your book club discussion of it.
