#TheRosieProject, by #GraemeSimsion Such a Great Book! #GoodReads #Autism #Aspergers #BigBangTheory #Sheldon #FreddieHighmore


  The Rosie Project, by Graeme Simsion - One of THE best books I've ever read, and that's saying a LOT! Read it, you'll looove it! : )

 Omg, you are gonna fall in love with Don, in this wonderful, sooo funny, beautiful little book. It won't take you long to read it, because you won't be able to put it down, you'll be so wrapped up in this fantastic story. Don is soo funny - I had Sheldon's voice in my head, the whole time, Sheldon from The Big Bang Theory...oh, man, I just cannot get enough of this book, The Rosie Project. It's so beautifully crafted, so well written, you will just be taken away by it, and then you'll want to share it with all your friends, colleagues, family, people you pass on the street ... it's just that good! lol!

 And here's the thing - this subject matter is so close to my own heart, and almost everyone knows someone like Don, or maybe they relate directly to Don, and it's so moving, so beautiful and sensitive, and hilariously funny - you will absolutely fall in love with this book.

And I don't think this book, #TheRosieProject, or it's sequel, #TheRosieEffect, are necessarily all about #Autism or #Aspergers, they are just a part of Don's wonderful and delightful personality, just the way he is, and I loove that approach. #GraemeSimsion's books are for everyone, but if you happen to have a special space in your heart for some really lovely, really special people, these books will be even more meaningful and precious to you, as they were for me : )

Oh, and my wonderful daughter, Cara, tells me they're making a movie of the Rosie Project, so, of course, that means they will also make the sequel, The Rosie Effect..... I'm hoping the main characters, Don and Rosie, would be played by Sheldon (from The Big Bang Theory)(Jim Parsons, in real life - lol!), as Don Tillman, and Scarlett Johanssen as Rosie... they would be great! and maybe Hugh Jackman as Gene??

 Oh, boy, I'm excited about getting to read the next book, The Rosie Effect, and I'm excited to tell you about this incredibly wonderful, beautiful, and enlightening (and soo funny!) book, The Rosie Project, AND, I'm super excited about the movies coming out, The Rosie Project, first, and then The Rosie Effect...





Ooh, now I'm thinking Freddie Highmore, from The Good Doctor, to play the part of our beloved Don... whoever they choose, and I hope they do make The Rosie Project and The Rosie Effect into movies - would be the best Rom-Coms, ever! #RomanticComedy 



























Right? What do you think? Wait 'til; you've read the book, and let me know! lol! And then Hugh Jackman as Gene?? Man, you'd be so excited when there's another scene with Gene - Yum! lol!




And now there's a sequel about to come out, The Rosie Effect, so we can hardly WAIT for that - will be automatic reading, the second The Rosie Effect gets into our hands - lol!


   

The Rosie Effect, by Graeme Simsion - the Sequel to The Rosie Effect... you're gonna fall in love with these wonderful books - and Don! And Rosie : ) 

The Rosie Effect, the second book in Graeme Simsion's Rosie Series (well, I'm hoping it's a Rosie SERIES - hahahaha!  I can't get enough of Don and his hilarious and touching adventures - lol!  So sweet, so funny... oh, man, you are a'gonna looove these beautiful books!

The Fall of Five, by Pittacus Lore. Wow, what an amazing read!  My tummy is rumbling, I haven't eaten all day - have been so busy reading this incredible book - never, ever, let any kind of age-range idiot thing or title rule what you decide to read - if you haven't started reading the whole Pitticus Lore series of I Am Number Four, and all the rest of the series, man-oh-man, are you in for a serious reading treat! lol!  You will get totally lost in the scenes and the characters - is a fantastic read!!  Okay, I'm off to have some 'well-earned' macaroni and cheese, try to bring myself back down to earth, so-to-speak! lol!  You'll laugh when you've read the books, which I highly recommend. Go get you some Pitticus Lore, read yourself silly!!  With Much Book Love, Ailsa xox!!
