I came across this meme and thought it sounded like a lot of fun. I like the idea of YOU choosing a book for me! It’s hosted by Because Reading is better than real life and you can click on the button to get all the deets. But in a nutshell, I give you 3 books, you vote and I’ll review the book by the end of Jan.

So these are my three options and I’m choosing them all from books I’ve bought but never got around to reading.
The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight by Jennifer E Smith
Why I bought it? I love contemporary and themes about fate so I thought this one sounded cute.
.
Four minutes changes everything. Hadley Sullivan 17 misses her flight at JFK airport, is late to her father’s second wedding in London with never-met stepmother. Hadley meets the perfect boy. Oliver is British, sits in her row. A long night on the plane passes in a blink, but the two lose track in arrival chaos. Can fate bring them together again?
The Rosie Project by Graeme Simsion:
Why I bought it? I didn’t! I won it but I think it sounds like a fun mix of quirky and realistic.
Don Tillman, professor of genetics, has never been on a second date. He is a man who can count all his friends on the fingers of one hand, whose lifelong difficulty with social rituals has convinced him that he is simply not wired for romance. So when an acquaintance informs him that he would make a “wonderful” husband, his first reaction is shock. Yet he must concede to the statistical probability that there is someone for everyone, and he embarks upon The Wife Project. In the orderly, evidence-based manner with which he approaches all things, Don sets out to find the perfect partner. She will be punctual and logical—most definitely not a barmaid, a smoker, a drinker, or a late-arriver.
Yet Rosie Jarman is all these things. She is also beguiling, fiery, intelligent—and on a quest of her own. She is looking for her biological father, a search that a certain DNA expert might be able to help her with. Don’s Wife Project takes a back burner to the Father Project and an unlikely relationship blooms, forcing the scientifically minded geneticist to confront the spontaneous whirlwind that is Rosie—and the realization that love is not always what looks good on paper.
Spare Brides by Adele Parks
Why I bought it? I love this period. And also Danielle from What Dani Did Next made me buy it!
Damaged and beautiful, they were the generation who lost so much and became ‘spare brides’. The richly compelling and emotional new novel from Sunday Times bestselling author Adele Parks is the powerful story of four extraordinary women left to pick up the pieces of their lives, in the scarred, glamorous and endlessly fascinating post-First World War era.
New Year’s Eve, 1920. The Great War is over and it’s a new decade of glamorous promise. But a generation of men and women who survived the extreme trauma and tragedy will never be the same.
With countless men lost, it seems that only wealth and beauty will secure a husband from the few who returned, but lonely Beatrice has neither attribute. Ava has both, although she sees marriage as a restrictive cage after the freedom war allowed. Sarah paid the war’s ultimate price: her husband’s life. Lydia should be grateful that her own husband’s desk job kept him safe, but she sees only his cowardice.
VOTING TIME!!
Over to you, no such thing as a free ride around here, you have to do some work too! Which do you want to see me read and review before the end of January? And I’d love to hear your reasoning down in the comments too. So go vote and then talk to me!

Right, the cover alone would have sold it to me. But it also has had great reviews from trusted friends so I’m hopeful that I’d love it.
Shaina
The Rosie Project sounds the most intriguing to me! I’m a bit nerdy when it comes to genetics, so this sounds like a great little romance. 🙂

I know I’m going to read Spare Brides soon no matter what the result! This poll just reminded me what a fab sounding book it is 🙂
Stormi
Okay, so I had a hard time with this one..normally I go for one that I think I would like, but these are all out of my reading zone..lol. So I went with Spare Brides cause I like the period and sounded like the one I could be convinced into reading if I liked what I heard about it. 🙂
trish
I don’t really have a reading zone! I just read everything that catches my eye and hence my ridiculous trb pile! I’m kind of hoping Spare Brides wins so I guess I better read it soon anyway no matter what the result 🙂

I’m loving how mixed all the votes are! I think The Rosie Project does sound like a lot of fun and there has been a lot of buzz about this book so I’m hopeful that I’d enjoy it.
Cynthia
I voted for The Rosie Project, but it looks like the love at first sight one is winning. That is fine because I was torn between the two. Both of them look so promising. It would be great to hear your thoughts before I decide!

The Statistical Probability of Love at First sight sounds good. I own The Georgraphy of You and Me by the same author. If you have a moment I would love for you to come vote on my TBR list.
Chrissi Reads
The Rosie Project because I love the main protagonist and think he’s an incredibly interesting character.
Berls @ Fantasy is More Fun
That is such a hard decision – all of them sound interesting and unique. But I’m fascinated with the Post WWI era, so I chose Spare Brides. Can’t wait to see which one wins, it’s close!

When I started on your list, I thought I’d pick Statistical Probability…mainly because I have it on my shelf to read. 🙂 But when I read the synopsis of Spare Brides, it hooked me. I hope you enjoy whichever book is chosen! 🙂
