Twelve-year-old Ariel Goldberg's life feels like the moment after the final guest leaves the party. Her family's Jewish bakery runs into financial trouble, and her older sister has eloped with a young man from India following the Supreme Court decision that strikes down laws banning interracial marriage. As change becomes Ariel's only constant, she's left to hone something that will be with her always—her own voice.

Chalked full of learning and discussion points
Revisado: 07-13-23
Written in second person, filled with historical facts and realities the story brought me back to 1967 I would have been in eighth grade. I encountered some of the same thoughts and discussions in a community with multiple races and religions. I was 10 when JFK was shot and began to become aware of topics including MLK’s peaceful protesting, interracial marriage, Viet Nam War and protests. I can remember family debates and discussions on some of these very topics. I hope this book can be a jumping off point, not to solve problems but to open discussions Some people have real value systems that may be different from yours; they may have real reasons why they believe what they do. That makes them different not wrong. “Can I love you as a person even though you have a belief that I feel is wrong? Can you love me as a person even though you don’t believe as I ?”

This is a story that tells about PTSD from many view points. The story of how many are affected, how reasons and expectations may or may not realistic, and that there is help for all. It is an example of ways for the hopeless to find hope and for people to communicate. Yes, it is also a love story.
