Overview

A showgirl - adventurer - whistle-blower changes direction after her heart is stirred when she sees pitiful waifs on the streets of Asia. In a complete life reversal she gives up her extraordinary life. Settling down, she marries, and sets out to adopt one child.

I have been eagerly waiting for this book after reading June's previous books Goodbye Junie Moon and Junie Moon Rising. Her wish to adopt was clear in those books, and I have been anxiously waiting to see what actually happened.... In Junie Moon Changes Course June has let me into her world, the real world of adoption. It is not saccharin sweet, it is the true story. I found this book not always to be an easy read, but it is a compelling read. I feel I have a better understanding after reading it, and I thank June for sharing her story.
