What this book is about

Don Tillman, a genetics professor with profound social and emotional differences, creates a sixteen-page questionnaire to find a genetically and temperamentally compatible wife. He meets Rosie, who fails every criterion and upends every plan he made. Sweet, funny, and genuinely warm-hearted, The Rosie Project is a love story told entirely from a mind that processes the world differently — and finds unexpected joy in human connection anyway.
