I once stole something. On purpose. In my adult years. A €2.00 novelty pin. I was in Paris feeling vacation bliss and I couldn't find the owner of the outdoor booth. So I took it. I then promptly felt like I was gong to be sick and ran, literally ran, away sweating. I was convinced for the rest of the trip, that I would be caught and thrown into foreign jail. So maybe it was my dark criminal past that made me feel tense reading this memoir, but my innocent, law-abiding mother read it and felt the same way, so I blame Kerman's truthful story-telling! I could not put this book down. Well written and truly eye opening. Read it with a friend, because there are many lively discussions to be had.

Quirky and endearing, The Rosie Project is a love story told through the eyes of your favourite "nerd." I couldn't get Sheldon (from The Big Bang Theory) out of my head... in a good way! Once you get into the rhythm of Don's character, you find yourself cheering for this unconventional romance. Lessons in love and human spirit are fun to read through this unlikely teacher.
