2018 A to Z Challenge - April Mini Challenge - A book with yellow on the cover.
What a fun and engaging book. Quirky, socially-challenged Don Tillman comes up with a logical solution to his dating problems - an extensive questionnaire to weed out incompatible partners! I've thought the same exact thing at times and honestly, it's no different than creating profiles on on-line dating sites. Right? Frankly, though how legit are these questionnaires/profiles? 20 years ago I was a smoker and a meat-eater. Today I kicked the habit, became a vegetarian and many of my opinions/judgments have changed! When we limit ourselves to what we think may be the "perfect" partner we often miss the adventure of an unexpected companion.
What entails in The Rosie Project is an entertaining journey with Don as he discovers the joy in his life when he gets off schedule. I found myself not wanting to put down this gem of a book and laughing and cheering Don on through all his social awkwardness!
