khoar 's review for:

The Rosie Result by Graeme Simsion
3.0

In book 3 of the Rosie series, Don, Rosie and their son, Hudson, find themselves back in Australia after Rosie is offered a job that is too good to pass up.  Unfortunately, all is not sunshine and roses .... Don has been accused of racism at his university, Rosie's research position is not going well and Hudson is not adjusting to his new school.  Don decides to dedicate his time to solving the "Hudson project".

I found the book amusing in places, poignant in others.  My favorite parts of the book were the interactions between Rosie and Don and various school administrators as they grappled with the possibility of Hudson being "on the Autism spectrum".  Their experiences reminded me of my own parents' struggles and challenges in dealing with the public school system and my younger brother's special needs.  If you enjoyed the first two books in this series, I don't think that you will be disappointed with The Rosie Result.
