I like the quirky main character, but he got a little drowned out in the 2nd book of the series.

Enjoyed the first book, but this was too much of the same and didn't hold my attention. Didn't finish.

The sequel to The Rosie Project didn’t have quite the same charm that the original did. Don’s quirks and mannerisms were all consistent between the two books, but his behavior was distinctly different in this one. He engaged in quite a bit of deception throughout the book, which actually made most of it stressful to read. Rosie was largely in a funk for the entirety of the novel, making her rather unlikeable overall. The book suffered from the same overly happy (and difficult to believe) ending that the first novel did. While I’m happy to have seen what happened next for Don and Rosie, I don’t think I will be reading the third book in this series.
