The Rosie effect / Graeme Simsion.

Simsion, Graeme C., (author.).

Summary:

Greetings. My name is Don Tillman. I am forty-one years old. I have been married to Rosie Jarman, world's most perfect woman, for ten months and ten days. Marriage added significant complexity to my life. When we relocated to New York City, Rosie brought three maximum-sized suitcases. We abandoned the Standardised Meal System and agreed that sex should not be scheduled in advacne. Then Rosie told me we had "something to celebrate," and I was faced with a challenge even greater than finding a partner. I have attempted to follow traditional protocols and have sources advice from all six of my friends, plus a therapist and the internet. The results has been a web of deceit. I am now in danger of prosecution, deportation and professional disgrace. And of losing Rosie forever. --[Book Jacket].

    Don Tillman and Rosie Jarman are back. If you were swept away by Graeme Simsion’s international smash hit The Rosie Project, you will love The Rosie Effect.

    The Wife Project is complete, and Don and Rosie are happily married and living in New York. But they’re about to face a new challenge.

    Rosie is pregnant.

    Don sets about learning the protocols of becoming a father, but his unusual research style gets him into trouble with the law. Fortunately his best friend Gene is on hand to offer advice: he’s left Claudia and moved in with Don and Rosie.

    As Don tries to schedule time for pregnancy research, getting Gene and Claudia back together, servicing the industrial refrigeration unit that occupies half his apartment, helping Dave the Baseball Fan save his business and staying on the right side of Lydia the social worker, he almost misses the biggest problem of all: he might lose Rosie when she needs him most.

    Get ready for The Rosie Effect, the new hilarious and heart-wrenching romantic comedy of the year.
