I belong to a bookclub through Brandeis for the last thirteen years. I just finished reading your book, and tomorrow is our meeting to discuss it. We all live in the Valley, from Sherman Oaks, to Encino, to WH, etc. The ladies in my group are of all age groups, and they are so brilliant, it is a pleasure to be part of this amazing group. I will relate them the message about October 17th. I admire the research you did for this book. I grew up in Communist Rumania and did not have a chance to study about my own religion. Since my children were little, I've alway taken classes at their respective Hebrew schools, and now (after the holidays) I will resume my classes at Chabad in Sherman Oaks with Rabbi Lipskier, who is so inspiring..I believe Wed nights. Thank you again for writing such a beautiful book, which I truly enjoyed so very much.Best regards, Kitty
