This was an absolutely beautiful book. I loved the relationship between Ziva and Pesah, which was filled with normal sibling silliness but also showed a deep abiding love and affection for each other. This is a story about growing up and fighting for what you believe in, and also the agony of learning to let go. I loved the culture, which is lush and richly textured. Overall, a stunning and lovely book.
