I read the entire book within 3 hours! This is like my first time finishing a novel in one sitting.
I just love the author's writing style (even though I have no idea half of the Jewish terms she uses).

What a fun read.

My only complain is the ending is not satisfying enough.

Really big fan of Gabrielle Zevin’s books lately and I enjoyed this. Quick read and the author covered the subject matter well and with nuance. Liked the all women focus of the narrative and the exploration of the effect a scandal has on career and the power dynamics between a young woman and a much older, more powerful man.

4.5

This book was beautifully written, wrapping you up in the slice of life happenings of three generations of women as they strive for contentment. There’s 5 chapters, with each one from a different point of view, offering a developing multifaceted story slowly and subjectively revealed. The ending and the story itself is not happy nor sad, but real.

I was blown away by how much I love this book! This book reminded me why I love books about women that are written by women! Every main character is a woman, and each one is well-rounded and fully fleshed out. They're allowed to be messy and have confusing inner lives. They have hopes and fears. They fall into and out of love. They make their own choices on their own terms. They feel so real, which is extremely refreshing!
