📚 The Matzah Ball by @jeanmeltzer

Writer's picture: 𝔸𝕟𝕚𝕜- MamaBear𝔸𝕟𝕚𝕜- MamaBear

Rachel Rubenstein-Goldblatt is a nice Jewish girl with a shameful secret: she loves Christmas. For a decade she’s hidden her career as a Christmas romance novelist from her family. Her talent has made her a bestseller even as her chronic illness has always kept the kind of love she writes about out of reach.


But when her diversity-conscious publisher insists she writes a Hanukkah romance, her well of inspiration suddenly runs dry. Hanukkah’s not magical. It’s not merry. It’s not Christmas. Desperate not to lose her contract, Rachel’s determined to find her muse at the Matzah Ball, a Jewish music celebration on the last night of Hanukkah, even if it means working with her summer camp archenemy—Jacob Greenberg.


Though Rachel and Jacob haven’t seen each other since they were kids, their grudge still glows brighter than a menorah. But as they spend more time together, Rachel finds herself drawn to Hanukkah—and Jacob—in a way she never expected. Maybe this holiday of lights will be the spark she needed to set her heart ablaze.



💭My review:🐻

I'm not really big on romance books, but this one caught my eye and I gave it a chance and I don't regret it one bit. It's a very cute and fun book, I love the authors writing and the setting of the book. I find the Jewish religion so intriguing. This book has a little bit of everything Romance, Quirkiness, illness, Family issues. I was totally hooked from the start. It was a fun read and I really enjoyed it. This book is really special. I recommend this to everyone that wants a quick fun romance holiday book.


I give 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
