I understand I had an ARC, but the book was difficult to follow with strange breaks in the dialogue. Plus, often it was hard to understand who was speaking, especially in conversations between more than two people.
Overall, loved it, of course, because this is such a great couple, great story, well told.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Beyond amazing I enjoyed this book so very much. The characters and storyline were fantastic. The ending I did not see coming Could not put down nor did I want to.

This may have been my favorite of the three Rosie books. As Simsion notes in the acknowledgements, the conversation around autism has evolved since the first Rosie book, and I appreciated that he seems to have integrated himself into those conversations and tackled the topic much more head-on in this book than in the others. I don’t have much personal experience with autism and don’t want to speak for others, but to me it felt like a much more nuanced and thoughtful approach to the issue than we’ve seen from him previously, and I also appreciated the allusions to the point that the societal idea of autism as a worst fear/horrific outcome is demeaning and inaccurate, though I wish he’d hit that point a little more explicitly.

Generally, as with the first book, I enjoyed the book and its characters and humor. There were a couple spots that fell short for me, particularly around control/domestic violence, where I didn’t really feel like the story was fleshed out, and I didn’t understand what point Simsion was trying to make. I also wished we’d seen a little more of the relationship between Rosie and Don, and while we heard a lot of complaints from Rosie about work stuff, I’d have liked to have the actual themes and issues of misogyny and working mothers explored in more depth. But overall, a solid book and at the same time, a fun read.

I really enjoyed the first book of this series. I love that the series has a protagonist that is different and portrayed in a way that minimizes the stereotypes. It seems especially timing considering Amy Schumer’s statements about her husband. It is great to see that correlation and hope it leads to more acceptance.

This book goes into more detail with his son, who is now eleven. At first it seemed obvious that he was also on the spectrum. However, as time progresses, with a lot of help from his parents, it continues to be questioned.

While I enjoyed revisiting the characters, and they were just as entertaining, it began to feel a little forced and singularly focused.

I have loved all of Graeme’s books so far and this one is another winner! This time, we learn more about Hudson and how Don is working to be a better dad. What are the ways he can help Hudson? Is it nature or nurture? As a parent, I really enjoyed all the thought processes and insights as he worked through his problems. I think the only thing I didn’t like was the derision about homeopathy, but I can understand how a scientist might feel that way.


(Will provide reviews on Amazon and Goodreads once book is released.)

I was delighted to have my wish granted for this one as I absolutely love the Rosie series! And of course this one was just as hilarious and poignant as the others. Don and Rosie have encountered and dealt with many difficulties in their relationship and now with son, Hudson exhibiting autistic tendencies much like Don's, there are even more challenges ahead. Trying to dodge labels in this PC world is difficult to say the least, and when Hudson's school administrators attempt to force the family into a diagnosis, Rosie and Don are conflicted and unsure of how to handle the situation, Added to the mix is Rosie's battle with her new boss and Don's attempt to open a trendy new bar. It's an absorbing and heartwarming storyline mixed in with Simsion's trademark laugh-out-loud humor and pathos that result in a novel that will stay with me for a long time. And although I'm not listening to the audio version, I still hear Sheldon's voice in my head narrating this incredible book!

This is the third and final installment in this series (don't even try reading one of them as a stand alone!). Like its predecessor, the writing takes some getting used to (even more so because of NetGalley formatting) because of Don's manner - though it's an effective way of getting his personality across.

Thank you to Text Publishing and NetGalley for the ARC.

A fitting conclusion to the series! I enjoyed seeing Don and Rosie with their child and Struggling with the challenges of parenthood, especially parenting a child on the autism spectrum. It was humorous and just the right places, and I learned a lot about autism and people who are on the spectrum. I found that very and lightning.

Thanks to NetGalley, the author and publisher for an advanced reading copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

I truly wanted to love this book like did Rosie and Don in the first book but sadly I didn't. Maybe I just had to high of expectations for it. Overall it was still a wonderful read and I truly believe that other readers with be happy with the conclusion of the story!

Fans of “The Rosie Project” and “The Rosie Effect” will love this book. We pick up on Rosie and Don several years later adjusting to life with your 10-year-old son, Hudson. Don is transferred to work back to their native Australia and they begin to notice Hudson having trouble socially. When a teacher approaches Don and Rosie about Hudson’s trouble in school, Don sees a parallel between himself and his son. After some trouble at work, Don decides to dedicate the majority of his time to helping Hudson prepare socially and emotionally for high school.

I liked this book a lot. I have read the first two books and I was so excited to see a sequel. I like that Don, who is socially strange and perhaps on the autism spectrum, is working to help his son with similar issues. Don goes into his past as a teenager and we see the effect it has on him when his peers socially ostracize him, and why it is so important for him to help Hudson navigate social situations. I love Don as a character, he is so sweet and funny and it’s so great to see situations through the eyes of a person who doesn’t always understand humor or sarcasm. It is also sweet as he reflects on his sometimes strained relationship with his father during his teenage years and realizes his father was helping him in his own less sensitive way. I would recommend this book for fans of “The Rosie project” series, general fiction, and humor.

Special thanks to net galley for my complementary copy and return for my honest review.

I had read the Rosie Project by Graeme Simsion several years ago from a recommendation from a friend. I didn’t realize the author had continued Don and Rosie’s story. The Rosie Result is the third in the series. This story centers around their son Hudson who is now struggling in school. Don is not your traditional hero. His brain is wired differently and he has found a unique way to navigate the world. Now he has to find a way to show his son how to navigate the world. I love getting caught up with the well crafted characters.

A good conclusion to the trilogy. Having a relationship, keeping in while having a child- Don Tillman has mastered it despite his quirks ( that may or not be Asperger's or Autism-related) But now his 11 year old son, Hudson is starting to have the same sort of problems that led Don to a downward spiral of depression and suicdal thoughts. Don has to find a way to fix the Hudson problem.

I enjoyed the relationships ans surprises throughout the book. I like that Don is wrong to assume Hudson will be exactly like himself in all situations and preferences. I like that while the end was satisfying, it didn't tie things in a neat bow. Example- I wanted to know if Hudson and Nadia were on their way to dating, I wonder about the future outlook for The Library. I want to know if Gary will be punished, and his wife and child leaving him. I most liked how Hudson was obviously troubled at times, but found ways to cope. And the idea that the world should accommodate those that are not neuro-typical more, instead of expecting the individual to do it themselves. That's the biggest difference between what Don went through, and how things are later for Hudson. Obviously, the novel won't make sense without having read the two books before it, but if you enjoyed them, reach for this one!

I guess I am one of a handful of people who didn't read the first two Don Tillman novels before reading The Rosie Result. I thoroughly enjoyed the 3rd and last installment even with not having a clue as to how Don and Rosie met nor how their love story unfolded. I love the scientific approach to solving emotional issues and how the mind of Don Tillman works.

Thank you NetGalley for an ARC in return for an honest review.

The final installment of Graeme Simison’s bestselling trilogy. The Rosie Result further follows Rosie, Don, and now their eleven year old son, Hudson. Rosie and Don fight to support their son as he struggles in school. As the school pressures them to get Hudson tested for autism, Rosie and Don develop “The Hudson Project” as a way to help Hudson develop the necessary life skills needed to adjust to school, home, and life.

Highly recommended for anyone having read the first two in the series and even if you haven’t it reads great as a stand alone novel.

This book is another fun read by Graeme Simsion in the Rosie series. Don and Rosie's child is suspected to be "on the spectrum" and Don decides to stay home and coach him through life. There are plenty of cute escapades they get into. Cute, but not my favorite in the series. #netgalley

The only bad thing about The Rosie Result-and it truly is terrible-is that this is the last book in the series. For fans of this trilogy, The Rosie Result is sure to not disappoint. This book focuses primarily on Hudson, Rosie and Don's son, and his attempts to fit into school. Through helping Hudson assimilate into modern culture, Don learns a lot about himself and his own struggles to fit in. I love how Simsion doesn't focus his writing on plot, but instead lets the story almost tell itself through its strong characterization. It is a book where nothing much happens, yet you feel everything.

I received this book free from NetGalley in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion.

The Rosie Result (Don Tillman Book 3) by [Simsion, Graeme]

I adored The Rosie Project. This had some great moments, but overall was too formulaic.

Thanks to Netgalley for the review copy.

I enjoyed this book, but the tone has changed since the first novel. Which is to be expected, I suppose.

I don't want to judge a book by what I wanted it to be but, now that I finished the story, I wish the first person narrator had been Hudson, not Don.

The first book of this series was by far my favorite. The next 2, including this one just didn’t meet the bar the first book set. I wish they’d all been great, but the first was the standout.

It was lovely to revisit Rosie and Don and meet their son, but this wasn't my favorite book of the Rosie series. However, it was funny and thought-provoking, and I think it was an appropriate end to the series.
