The Marrying of Chani Kaufmann
The Marrying of Chani Kaufmann | Eve Harris
12 posts | 9 read | 9 to read
19 year-old Chani lives in the ultra-orthodox Jewish community of North West London. She has never had physical contact with a man, but is bound to marry a stranger. The rabbi's wife teaches her what it means to be a Jewish wife, but Rivka has her own questions to answer. Soon buried secrets, fear and sexual desire bubble to the surface; not to mention what happens on the wedding night... A story of liberation and choice, The Marrying of Chani Kaufman is a compelling and original debut novel

Finally figured out my list for the #litsyatozchallenge. I‘m also working on Book Riots‘s #readharder, but the A to Z is going to be in the driver‘s seat. I‘m going to tackle some great books on my #tbr shelf, up my nonfiction game and review some books—as promised. 👏🎉🥳
@BookishMarginalia Thanks! 🌟🌟🌟

Decided to up my 2018 total by 10%. Should be do-able. It also leaves room for kicking it in my copywriting business this year (#intention).

I‘d like at least nine of these to be business books.

I messed up! Last month I didn‘t pay attention to instructions and got distracted by parents‘ health issues. So, @kspenmoll didn‘t receive a book from me for the #lmpbc. 🤦‍♀️

This book has been in my TBR shelf for awhile. Sounds intriguing. I‘ll get through pronto and send it on it‘s way.

#AdelesMayMashUp Day 12: Chani is a 19 year old girl who was raised in an ultra-orthodox Jewish community and is marrying a total stranger. As the rabbi‘s wife teaches her how to be a good wife, she will probably learn what it means to #MakeYouFeelMyLove. A #BigBadWolf book find.

vkois88 Sounds interesting! 7y
