I was recently recomended a book by a fellow Blogger. The book "From China With Love" by Emily Buchanan is the story of an English couple and their adoption journeys for their two beautiful daughters Jade and Rose.
It's an amazing book. I devoured it, and wanted more. The early parts of the book deal with infertility issues, and how once they made the decision to adopt, the process works. It talks in great detail about the questioning they endured as part of their home visits and is sometimes critical of the system. Emily is a journalist for the BBC and her views on international adoption have been bourne out of much travel and personal experiences. She definitely gave me food for thought.
I read so many people's blogs about their adoptions. Mostly from China. Mostly American families. It was lovely to read a story about an English couple and what they faced, because that is after all, what we will face should we go down that route.
