I loved Raizl. I loved this book. Actually holistic depiction of Chasidic communities juxtaposed with a young girl exploring her sexuality and feeling caught between fantasy/desire and the expectations of the life she is destined to have. Great mix of sensual moments and genuine, heartfelt reflections that felt wholly relatable.
