This book was so cute! This ASD loving therapist loved this story of an autistic man on a journey to find love.

I don't put stars on my reviews for reasons. 

I really enjoyed this book told through the lens of an autistic genetics professor seeking a life companion in what he believes is the most logical possible way. More than once, I identified with his feelings of befuddlement over social cues and the motivations of other people. Good character growth and a satisfying answer to one of the central mysteries that drives the plot forward. I laughed out loud several times.

Super cute take in a love story. Not conventional love for sure, which I adored about this book!
