A review by emmabeckman
The Rosie Result by Graeme Simsion
4.0
I really liked this one! I like the way that this author tells real life stories with just enough intrigue to keep your attention. Don's voice is also clear and unique which separates this book from a lot of other contemporary family dramas.
I can't comment on the quality of the representation in this book necessarily, but I really liked that this installment really focused on the idea of labelling others versus labelling yourself. I really appreciated that it discussed how people feel like the need to assign labels in order to understand each other, especially in terms of adults and children. I also liked the emphasis on letting a person decide how they want to represent themselves, in all aspects.
