Media Reviews
"[A]n intelligent first novel-poignant and thoughtful-from a writer to watch."
-- Kirkus
"Rachel isn't always a likable girl, but we sympathize with her plight....The book is compelling throughout. Abraham's unadorned prose (appropriate to Rachel's straightforward personality) cuts right to the conflicts. THE ROMANCE READER is a good example of how suspense can arise simply from passionate characters. If the ending is a bit too ambiguous to satisfy us, that's in part because we don't want to leave Rachel without knowing everything that happens to her for the rest of her life." -- Donna Levin
-- San Francisco Chronicle Book Review
"Abraham's vivid first novel focuses on Rachel Benjamin, the eldest daughter of a Hasidic rabbi, who feels suffocated by the community's rigid amalgam of biblical strictures and Eastern European traditions." -- Charles Solomon
-- Los Angeles Times Book Review
