Enjoyable story. Thought-provoking, but not heavy reading...just right for the holidays. If you like Dorothea Benton Frank, you won't be disappointed with this holiday novel. It was funny, mystical, and filled with southern charm.

I am so glad that I stuck with this book because, for me, it was a slow-starter. Once I became familiar with the rich cast of characters, I couldn't put it down! It took me a week to read the first three chapters, then a day to read the rest! I loved learning about Orthadox Judiasm. I grew up Catholic, so understand many of the ritualistic behaviors and mannerisms that Tova Mirvis wove into her story. Though-provoking and inspiring.
