Don is a quirky man whose social conventions differ from most of us. He establishes a method by which to search (scientifically) for a wife, and tumbles down a rabbit hole of unexpected variables to his research. I can‘t wait to read the next book in this series!

I had such high hopes for this book as everyone always seems to love it and recommend it. I‘ve been planning to read it for years and now that I finally got around to it, I was bummed out. It was not as endearing as Eleanor Oliphant or The Kiss Quotient, and a bit slower, too.

What a wonderful book! It's a cute romance 💓 with a really good guy who is socially awkward. I was rooting for him all the way. As you can tell, this book got me another spot on my #FebruaryISpyBingo, @Clwojick @TheAromaofBooks. My Canadian Flag is red and white like the book cover. #LitsyLoveReads #LoveAthon23 @StayCurious

First book for my library's new book club! This was pretty cute and an easy read. I was invested in the story and characters, even if they did make me cringe sometimes with their actions. Looking forward to the rest of the series.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I thought this scientific romantic comedy was cute and fun! Don is a lovable, genuine, admirable character. I loved the focus on the gifts his differences bring and the celebration of diverse perspectives. 🎧

Don Tillman, the MC, is this very straight forward, logical, and blunt in his honesty. I absolutely fell in love with the dialogue. I just couldn't help but giggle and laugh at some situations for the way that they were described and the conversations that ensued.

Plus the narrator was just perfection! Like chef's kiss perfect! His accent was just great to listen to and I want to hear more from him.

A solid 4 star read!

I‘m starting this book now and I‘m really excited. I enjoy reading classics and other literature but sometimes I just want to read something more lighthearted. I hope I can relate to the main character because I have aspergers as well so maybe I will see some of myself in him or vice versa.

This is my 3rd time reading this (the 2nd and 3rd times for different book clubs). I gave it 5 stars the first time around, and I suspect that was mostly due to the ending. The 2nd time and this time around, it‘s a 4 star read. It is quite enjoyable and amusing. I listened to the audio this time, for something a bit different, and thought the narrator was quite good.

Rating - 4/5 @TheAromaofBooks April #bookspin

If you're looking for an easy breezy hilarious rom-com book to fill you with warmth, this is for you. The book is very funny filled with adorable instances of social awkwardness and utter cluelessness of Don in his wife-finding project. I found him quite irritating at first but I couldn't help but fall in love with the character and all his subtle and not-so-subtle quirks and all his innocent antics.

olivia.ferz Simsion has done a good job in writing this book which is beautifully tied together with drama, sarcasm and hilarity. I loved the way Simsion has written an unconventional love story with all the traditional makings of a love story and with the most traditional of all morals - 'You don't have to change yourself for the one who who truly loves you.' 4y

Very very cute quick romantic comedy about an unlikely relationship. I read this after a pretty heavy read and it was perfect. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Buechersuechtling I couldn‘t follow the hype train concerning this because I felt too much of the humour is on his charge – but what I really would want to implement in my life is his 6 weeks containing bill of fare. I think that this idea is brilliant. It‘s a time span long enough that I think I wouldn‘t be bored by repeating meals. 4y

I loved this love story! I especially enjoyed the process the protagonist went through to analyze and understand his emotions—especially for a person accustomed to structuring his life and behaving in ways that allowed him to separate his feelings from his self. This was a fun read.

This was delightful! Told from the perspective of a man who is clearly on the autism spectrum and in search of a life partner, it was quirky and highly amusing. Knowing people on the spectrum personally, I found the protagonist to be both accurate and endearing. This was a sweet, charming read.

This is perhaps the only romantic comedy book that I have ever enjoyed. Simsion wonderfullly managed to keep the book strictly funny and that was the highlight of the book for me.
The plot of the book is the quest of a man to form a scientific theory for love and of course, failing miserably yet hilariously😂

Eggbeater I liked this one also and I do not usually enjoy romance novels. 5y
