A cute Hanukkah romance~
This is a really cute, sweet story with some really beautiful images. I relate to many feelings David has about how his relationships usually don’t last and him being the common denominator between failed relationships, as well as feelings about commercialism and consumerism now a part of Hanukkah traditions. Growing up, I did love getting presents, but as I’ve gotten older the family time and, of course, the food is way more important to me.
I do feel some of the pacing with David and Amit is a little abrupt at times, and other times it’s sweetly paced. I do kinda wish the golem had been explored a little more, but the bits of information and myth we did get definitely added some depth to the story and Amit.
