The Rosie Effect by Graeme Simsion

This is the second book in a series.  The first title was The Rosie Project.  I have not read it but a brief synopsis appears on the jack of the current title which states the Don Tillman was intent on finding a life partner.  He created a sixteen-page questionnaire to find the perfect match.  He did.

When The Rosie Effect opens, Don and Rosie have been married for about ten months.  Their entire marriage is built on spontaniety and Don loves it.  They don't even plan what they are having for dinner.  However, Don is not prepared for the ultimate surprise which is that Rosie is pregnant.

Don is used to a ordered life and he finds himself in a predicament.  A series of events puts him in a precarious situation, not the least of which may be the dismanteling of everything he holds dear.

A good enough story but it didn't really hold my interest.  Perhaps if I had read the first book, I would have been more interested in the second.

Ladybookbug!
