this was so, so amazing, and i dont know why it doesn't have more reviews, cause it totally should. i'm guessing people get put off by the yiddish, but that's what makes up the unique character of the story, and it's originality, and i dont think its possible to change that =D i thoroughly enjoyed reading this, and now i'll be annoying my friends with all the yiddish words that i've learnt lol =D so thank you!

Aren't they dating a little soon...

Isn't this kid like ten years old?

Truthfully I think the epilogue is kinda useless but it definitely is cute. As the story progressed, your writing definitely improved and even though it seemed a bit messy at times, your story was really good. :)

I have to say that was interesting because you made it fun and humorous. But I think you laid it on a bit too much because it was hard to actually read it when you had so many thoughts going on. Good job and I can't wait to read more. :)

hey! i still didn't get around to reading your story, but as far as i could tell, it's the only jewish one on the sight kol hakavod (haha)

I loved it!
Ryder was hilarious but Elsie was a gem!

I love this story! You write with a very real, but fresh perspective, its quite excellent. Question: In the beginning I think I remember you describing Ryder as having really green eyes, but then later on, in the teen chapters, they're mentioned as grey. Or am I just crazy?

anywhom, the stories excellent, I too am sad that its almost over. I really like Noa. And rory. at first I was like, huh? but then I came to love the little guy.

Good luck with the writers block, and update soon!

that's hilarious! I love the first chapter.

I was always intrigued by this story. I'm from New Jersey (you mention Glen Ridge!) and Jewish. I love the idea of this story. It's so cute and funny. I love the way Noa tells the story and her alter ego. I wish you didn't stop!!

I am sorry about your great grandmother though. :(

That was freakin awsome! UPDATE!

Why did you have to stop!?!! I love it(even though the Yiddish is a little confusing)! UPDATE!

You had me at the title. I saw latkes, and said, "how can I not want to read a story that has latkes in the title?" YOu have to love a jewish mother, there is nothing you can do once you are stuck with one (or more, depending on how many jewish friends you have). The Yiddish really adds to the story. Keep up the good work.

lol the story's really cute and funny, especially with leland
keep writing!
