Lisa M. reviewed A waste of time - much better options out there on 2/5/2009

Helpful Score: 10

I have adopted from China, and this book was recommended to me. It left me really wanting for more information & wishing I hadn't wasted my money or time. Let me spare you 2 days: The author accompanies an acquaintance to China to adopt a child, the acquaintance (who has emotional problems, obviously) decides she doesn't want the baby. The author ends up adopting her. Alot of the book is spent on the authors own emotional issues, and a weird reincarnation dream theme. Big yuck in my opinion. If you want to read some really good adoption stories, try The Lost Daughters of China and some of the others. I kept thinking this was going to get better, but it didn't. If you're into reincarnation, however, you might like it.
