This one was a very easy to grasp look at all the holidays and life events in Judaism! I really appreciate the organized structure of it and the illustrations were just so pleasant too!

Stephen King may have wrote this book but he does not understand Carrie White like I do.
This story is I know branded as horror but, to me, this is a tragedy. Carrie was betrayed by this town. They sat by and watched her mom ruin her and did nothing. And at the end of it they frame her as evil. She was just a child. A broken child who deserved so much better than that.

I really liked this one. The first one was also good but this one felt so much more personal and raw. A difficult story told incredibly well.
