I didn't like this one as much as I liked The Rosie Project. While the narrator's voice was the same and he still had his quirks, which I so enjoyed in the first book, I found this one quite a bit sadder in terms of the results of his misunderstandings. I also found that Rosie's character was just not as vibrant and alive as she was in the first book, and it was really the combination of these two characters that made the first book so enjoyable. Still a good read though (read in one sitting!), and thankfully it still had a happy ending. I was preparing myself to be very sad as I finished it but I was glad that it didn't end up that way. Still, the "happy ending" was not as developed as I'd have liked to see it.

If you enjoyed the Rosie project probably don’t read this.
I found this completely infuriating.
This ruined the Rosie project for me and especially Rosie as a character.
Team Don. Fuck this book for real.

Once again I found myself laughing and crying while rooting for Don! This sequel to The Rosie Project was highly enjoyable!
Cute. I enjoyed revisiting the characters but this was not as much fun as The Rosie Project.
Ik was heel erg onder de indruk van het eerste boek, maar het tweede miste het verrassingseffect. Doordat je Don en Rosie al kent, weet je hoe ze denken en reageren. Ik merkte dat ik niet zo hard werd meegesleept door dit boek. Waar het eerste boek één grote ontdekkingstocht was in het hoofd en iemand met autisme, was dit eerder een verhaaltje over een koppel en hoe die trachten samen te leven. Met momenten is het boek plezant, maar ik vond het weinig meerwaard bieden. Zoals vaak is het vervolg niet zo goed als het eerste boek. Het einde vond ik ook iets te voorspelbaar.
I really want to give this 4.5 stars. Not quite as awesome as The Rosie Project, but very good. You can’t help but laugh at Don. I’m glad it ended the way it did. I needed for them to work and stay together.
