​For those of you looking for a fun, lighter read as summer comes to a close-look no further than Graeme Simsion’s The Rosie Project.  Perfect for those of you who like your comedy with a bit of romance, this is a quirky read about genetics professor who thinks he can find his perfect partner by way of a sixteen-page survey (the Wife Project).  

Fans of The Big Bang Theory will fall in love with Don Tillman as the "Wife Project" suddenly takes the back seat when he meets Rosie Jarman.  She doesn’t fit Don’s criteria, but Don finds himself developing a friendship of sorts with Rosie as she searches to find her biological father (the "Father Project").  Don and Rosie are total opposites, and you know what they say about opposites...

A reclusive author hasn’t published anything since her record-breaking best selling novel must now write in order to keep a roof over her head.

A young woman moves from New York to LA to become the author’s full-time assistant and finds she must take care of the author’s eccentric son instead.

A 9-year-old boy obsessed with old Hollywood and extreme fashion enlists his mother’s assistant to help him uncover the identity of his father.

Combine the three and you have the delightfully charming book, Be Frank with Me by Julia Claiborne Johnson.
