“That is painfully kind. I might vomit. Or try to kiss him. Hopefully not both at the same time.”
This book is A.D.O.R.A.B.L.E.
Two Jewish teenagers working in a mall bookstore over the holidays competing to see who can sell the most books and falling for each other in the process???? SIGN ME ALL THE WAY UP.
The girl has two moms and the boy has a single mom and there is an adorable friend group and teenage angst and banter and pining and hard crushing and a car named Barbra Streisand and dreidel cookie baking and Chinese food on Christmas day.
Walking in the busy mall together, Shoshanna thinks this about Jake, “Jake disappears momentarily as a man who must be at least six feet five sidles between us. I’m not above admitting my pulse skips at Jake’s seconds-long absence, then skips again upon his reappearance. I like Jake at my side. I like being able to look at him out of the corner of my eye while pretending to look at store marquees and holiday decorations.”
They are too cute.
