Title: Don't Judge a Book By Its Cover...
Review: This book was a selection from my temple's book club...did not know what to expect when I heard the title and was uttertly surprised once I cracked the cover and starting reading it...not exactly your zadie's fiction! Ms. Albert definitely has a gift with the pen, but while her recurring somewhat-sexually-repressed-Jewish-woman-in-quotidian-situation is written with some wit, the stories grow quickly tired and are reminiscent of a Larry David "Curb Your Enthusiasm" episode or a "Sex in the City" episode peppered with a bit of Judaica. Nevertheless, it's entertaining to read about 30-something women live life and be Jewish. Curious how the novel she is working on will read...Mazel Tov!
