I just finished this one and loved it! Took me a bit of time to get into it, probably due to only having time to read a few pages at a time, but a third of the way through I was hooked!I gave it four stars and would definitely recommend it.
i am starting this today as i have been seeing reviews about how funny it is...i just read 2 intense books so I am looking forward to this one...
Which two intense ones did you read? I just finished Defending Jacob this am and I'm emotionally drained!
Hi Tracy, I read actually 3.... Once We Were Brothers, Secret Daughter, and Tuesdays with Morrie. I am drained also!!! Hey why don't you add me as a friend on here? I tried adding you but sadly could not.
My book club is reading this book for October. I checked it out from the library however one of my members recommended the audiobook. I purchased the audiobook & instantly loved the narrator; it's a hoot! It was taking me a moment to get into the actual book. I'm much more into the audio version.
Tracy, I absolutely LOVED Defending Jacob. I was blown away, emotional, left with my mouth on the floor & heart aching. What a good book!
I really liked THE ROSIE PROJECT and put my review of the book on goodreads, if anyone is interested to look it up sometime.
I have read some reviews and people found it funny that's what made me want to read it but i am not finding it funny...i am finding it somewhat serious...am i insane?

No there is a serious side to it.

I found it quite a realistic portrayal of people with aspergers. I felt really sorry for Don at times, and I was annoyed with how others treated him. However, I found it very believable because of this as well. I found it to be quite an emotional read to be honest, but I really enjoyed it.
I found this book to be more touching than I expected. I did find some parts of it amusing though, especially the bar tending part.
okay glad you guys are feeling the same...i will finish it...now i do not feel like an idiot ..,i thought i was missing something or reading the wrong book that is how much the reviews i read differ from my opinion...
okay so now i am on chapter 13 and just can't feel it...i am going to drop it for now and maybe go back to it at a later date...

I like the way you think, Renee :)

I lent out my copy of "The Rosie Project" and didn't get it back! Also my copy of "Me Before You" . I'm thinking I should ask for some form of collateral before I lend out my books.
