Once More with Chutzpah by Haley Neil
5.0
I loved this one. If you like YA novels, go forth and read it or listen to it. It is just so very good.
A+ narration, 5 star book
Thank you to Dreamscape Media and NetGalley for a copy of the audiobook in exchange for my honest review.
Honestly, I am not always a fan of audiobooks. Often I feel like the narrators sound like they are from NPR or their voices just don't match what I hear in my mind. This one, though, is excellent. Cady Zuckerman nailed it. Her voice has character and draws you in. She makes you feel the emotions that Tally is experiencing with the subtle changes and intonation of her voice. She captures the cast of characters in the story, using a distinct voice for each one.
At a glance:
- Themes of discovery, identity (religious, sexual, as a person, as a twin), friendships, relationships, and grief
- Mental health rep
- Jewish and Interfaith rep
- LGBTQIA+ rep
- Standing on the cusp of adulthood
- Chapter titles from musicals
- Exchange trip to Israel
