This was a fun short and sweet novella with some good spice. I really enjoyed the Jewish representation with the story centered around Passover. I would recommend this for when you want a quick engaging read centered around Jewish and queer rep. I would definitely like to read more of the novellas in this series!

Loved 75% of it, then their communication went weird. Didn't like that at all.

I think non-Christian holiday books and movies are silly, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Christmas movies are silly in a celebrated way. Hanuakkah miracles just don't have the same flair, even if the story is based on a miracle that's not just some baby being born in a barn out of wedlock. Lol, all that being said, the set up for this Passover novel is a set-up. Sam's friend Virginia brings a blind date, Jordan, to Sam's first-night seder. Jordan is a woodworking Sephardic butch by whom Sam is immediately entranced. The problem is that Sam doesn't feel ready to fall in love. The characters are fine, and the sex is sexy. The plot is a little thin, but if you're starved for queer Jewish content, you'll probably like this book.
