The Rosie Effect is the second book in the
Don Tillman series by Graeme Simsion. Don has moved and started a new portion of his life, but no matter of openness or planning can prepare him for what comes next!
Conclusion:
Simsion ended his story
well. Although I was angry for a good portion of the book, he stayed
true to the characters. What I really like about Simsion's writing is
that it's honest. I feel as though these characters could be real people
dealing with their own issues and their friend's problems, as well. You
have one unusual, caring guy who's kind of holding together this random
assortment of people who have little in common. And all of them are
well-developed, flawed characters. But I kind of hope he writes
something different next, not another book in this series. As much as I
love Don and can think of lots of crazy adventures for his family and
friends to have next, I'm afraid the series has already run its course. I
was mad enough Rosie for most of this book, not sure I could handle her in the next step of her life. But if he does write another in the series, I'll read it, hopelessly curious as I am. Oh, and shout-out to Dan O-Grady for being a fun audiobook narrator! He does a great job with this series, and I'd love to find what else he's narrated.
Recommendation: If you've read The Rosie Project and want to see what happens next for Don Tillman, this is the book for you! I wouldn't really recommend this one separate from the first book.
