Mother for Dinner by Shalom Auslander

Creative take on questioning religion, traditions and identity.
The only thing that mostly annoyed me was the writing style? It kept jumping from present to past for little anecdotes and to me that interfered with the flow of the book even though they did provide context. And most of the time, if the plot wasn’t really moving along, it got a bit boring and hard to get through.
I wouldn’t really call this book ‘extremely funny’ or ‘superb’ as the cover suggests but it did have its moments. The funniest part was when mudd started listing off all the ways her children were born
