Call me a sucker for the nerdy type, but I loved this book. It kind of reminded me of The Big Band Theory when it came to Ivan's capability of expressing emotions and ineptness at public socializing.Camilla is an intelligent woman, but her next door neighbor, Ivan, is an actual rocket scientist. He's so set in his routines that she doesn't need a clock to tell her what time it is. Problem is that she becomes quite aware of his sexiness and has a difficult time not enjoying the eye candy, but he seems completely oblivious to her being a woman.Ivan needs help learning to socialize, so he asks Camilla and she agrees to give him 'lessons'. But after their first group night out he wants to give her different kinds of 'lessons'. Ones she might not have been prepared for, but ones she won't say no to.Ivan was a little clueless when it came to hints or anything that wasn't said straightforward, but honestly I think that's most people. Life would be so much easier if people just came right out and said what they wanted.My Favorite Quote: "I had a very active imagination and was working on a dry spell of over two years. I'd thought up things I didn't even know the names for."My Favorite Moment: I loved it when Ivan says: "Camilla, please tell me what I've done. You know I'll never figure it out on my own." It shows him expressing his weakness and the desire to get past it.
