4.0

Kissing Kosher is a light, funny, quick read but it also details serious issues such as chronic illness. The book is about two Jewish rival bakeries—the grandfather of one of the bakeries sends in his grandson to go undercover and work for their rival to steal a secret recipe but of course he falls for the granddaughter who is also his boss. I gave the storyline 3.5 stars but the knowledge I received about the Jewish community and chronic illness brought it up to 4 stars. The author was very informative but still able to make the story a rom-com. Laughing and learning—what is better than that?
