Just read..
The Rosie Project
by
Graeme Simsion
Very rarely can I devour a book in a single sitting... unless it's a decent wine list or similar.. It just isn't like me to sit and read for hours on end. Then I picked up The Rosie Project. Currently doing the bestseller thing I believe, it's a comedy romance, and I'm deadly serious when I say that's a genre I'm not all that into. But, the peculiarity of this first person narrative, presented through the Asperger's tinted view of Don Tillman, is eye-opening, heart warming, totally absorbing, and bloody hilarious. I even shed a tear or 2.. (at one point only, maybe two).
Discard your strict life schedule and dive in. I'm sure you won't be disappointed.

Consider it added. Now all I need to do is finish the three other books I'm reading!
Sadly, my social schedule allows for enough time for me to read 2 or 3 books per week. I have the Rosie Project in my cue for download . . . I'll have to check that one out.
If you are looking for something new of similar genre try A Dirty Job by Christopher Moore. I've read several by Moore and this is his best. Multiple laugh out load moments, or so I thought.
I'm adding this to my list!
Wow. That book sounds really interesting. I'm definitely going to read it. I read lots of different kinds of romance books. I used to be a little embarrassed about it but now I don't give a damn. They fire up my imagination and that is a very good thing indeed.
