Welcome to Litsy!

Two 16 year olds, a Hasidic Jew and a hard working black kid, fall in love after meeting in an elevator. I‘m dreading a disastrous fallout, but can‘t help but enjoy it so far. I love stories about good, smart, (mostly) obedient kids ❤️ I really hope things work out for them! ❤️ Also, the hero‘s chapters are narrated by Leslie Odom Jr, making me love with him even more

Decent, if not life-changing.

Had to interlibrary loan this one (thanks Ames Public Library!) to make more progress on my TBR randomizer challenge. Reviews look good!

This book was a real eye opener into the Hasidic Jewish community. Before I read this book I didn't know that much about it but by reading this book that showed both characters perspectives I now understand it better. I would recommend this book to anyone looking for an informational but romantic novel that shows multiple perspectives of an evident issue throughout the story.

I enjoyed this YA book with a #diverselovestories between 2 teens set in Brooklyn NY.

I really liked this book. Told in alternating chapters, Like No Other tells the story of Devorah and Jaxon. They come from different worlds. Now they are rethinking everything.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I loved the first half of the novel but I found the second half disappointing. I do recommend it for those who want a realistic contemporary forbidden romance, and for those who want to read about two very compelling characters.
