Graeme Simsion's first novel, The Rosie Project has been hailed as the feel good novel of 2013. It began life as a screenplay, winning the Australian Writers' Guild/Inscription Award for Best Romantic Comedy before being adapted into a novel. It also won the 2012 Victorian Premier's Literary Award for an unpublished manuscript and has since been sold around the world to over thirty countries.

In her Sydney Morning Herald review Helen Elliott described The Rosie Project as "1930s screwball comedy updated for 2013". She went on to call Simsion's writing "hand polished". (SMH, 23rd February 2013).
