Review of Finding Closure

[Protais Niyomukiza]

What a great book Rosie!
This an emotional book, tracing a heartfeeling life from adoption state to a reunion to the family which is a very sensitive time for someone who grew up away from parents and sublings. The emotions of reuniting with close relatives are very good moments but the expectations for Rosie didn't meet all that she had waited for because what may be desappointing as she narrates is reality does not always live up to hopes and expectations.
This book is extended on a life made troubled by displacements and familiy dislocations and a family reunification later after decades.
Thanks to Rosie for the book.

This doesn't seem to be a book that I would enjoy but I like your review. It is so detailed.
Thanks for the informative review!

I don't think adoption is always so moonlight and rose like some people make it out to be. Especially when siblings are involved, as I think there's always that seperation gap somehow. It would be nice to have an inside view from an adoptive child. That is for a detailed review. Congrats on BOTD.

I like Rosie's story of self discovery as she tries to unearth her biological family years after she was adopted. Thanks for the review.

This book seems very emotional. The journey of searching for her birth parents can't be easier, especially because she was adopted at birth. I'm curious to find out the process she followed after 55 years.

This book is a heartfelt exploration of identity and belonging, capturing the complex emotional journey that many adoptees face. Rosie Norman-Neubauer's honest storytelling invites readers to experience her excitement, anxiety, and ultimately the bittersweet reality of reconnecting with her birth family. Nice review.

The author's search for answers leads into a quest to find her birth family. The reunion is submerged with complicated emotions encompassing excitement and relief. The reality hits differently. The author finds closure in reconnecting with her birth family.

[Atieno Magero]

This is a raw and very moving memoir about the author's life. She shares her life story and journey to discovering her origins. Congratulations on making botd!

"Finding Closure" follows Norman-Neubauer as she embarks on a journey to find her origins and reunite with her family after 55 years of being adopted. It is a heartfelt memoir of self-discovery, identity, and reconnection. It will be a great book for those who have been adopted and those searching for their roots. Congratulations on BOTD!

[Huini Hellen]

I agree with the official reviewer's statement that at times, the pursuit of closure actually shatters established illusions, I think to the extent of one questioning whether the feat was worth it. Thank you for the review.

A great memoir by Rosie Norman-Neubauer. It’s often seen as unappreciative, but it’s natural for an adopted child to want to explore and discover the biological roots he or she comes from—and it's no different for Rosie here. While thankful for the opportunities provided, deeper questions nag at her: who were her birth parents? This seems like a hooking book, and I would love to read it. Huge congrats on BOTD!

"Finding Closure" by Rosie Norman _Neubauer is such a a masterpiece especially for those under similar situation , it gives a clear picture in what is happening in adoption world. Thanks for such a great review.

[David Umeobika]

Adopted at birth, Norman-Neubauer was raised in a stable middle-class home in Berkhamsted, England. But one thing was always there, which was to discover her real roots, her real family, and although thankful to her family that adopted her, it didn't deter her from eventually going for the search years later. What an exciting and fantastic book this is, and I congratulate the author profoundly for it.
