Mr. Perfect on Paper
Mr. Perfect on Paper | Jean Meltzer
12 posts | 7 read | 3 to read
From the author of The Matzah Ball comes a pitch-perfect romcom following a third-generation Jewish matchmaker who unwittingly finds her own search for love thrust into the spotlight... The perfect Jewish husband should be: A doctor or lawyer (preferably a doctor) Baggage-free (no previous marriages, no children) And of course--he must be Jewish As the creator and CEO of the popular Jewish dating app J-Mate, matchmaker Dara Rabinowitz knows the formula for lasting love--at least, for everyone else. When it comes to her own love life, she's been idling indefinitely. Until her beloved bubbe shares Dara's checklist for "The Perfect Jewish Husband" on national television and charming news anchor Chris Steadfast proposes they turn Dara's search into must-see TV. As a non-Jewish single dad, Chris doesn't check any of Dara's boxes. But her hunt for Mr. Perfect is the ratings boost his show desperately needs. If only Chris could ignore his own pesky attraction to Dara--a task much easier said than done when Dara starts questioning if "perfect on paper" can compete with how hard she's falling for Chris... "A warm, heartfelt ode to self-acceptance, honesty, and tight-knit Jewish communities...a true pleasure to read."--Olivia Dade, author of Spoiler Alert, on The Matzah Ball

Busy day of meetings in Hilo & now waiting for the rest of the plane to board, so I thought I sneak in today‘s prompt. The tagged book & The Matzah Ball both have #Hanukkah celebrations in them. I‘m not sure if the author‘s latest book Kissing Kosher does. 🕎 💙

Julsmarshall I‘m about to start Kissing Kosher, my audio book just came in :) 4mo

Casey was way more interested in watching his food bin than he was in providing readerly support services this morning, but that‘s okay. I‘m having a great time with MR. PERFECT ON PAPER, with or without his fuzzy face nearby! It strikes a good balance between wacky hijinks and more serious considerations. I hope I can find enough reading time to finish it today.

sarahbellum Good morning, Casey (and his human)! 👋 Hopefully interest in food means he‘s continuing to feel better? 🤞 1y
xicanti @sarahbellum he seems fully recovered from yesterdays upset, thank goodness! 1y
sarahbellum @xicanti yay! 👏 1y

You will find out when you read this cute, funny, light read...I laughed out loud and also shed some tears at times.

#AugustARC #AugustARCReadathon #NewToYouAuthor

From the author of The Matzah Ball; cute rom-com read for review about Dara a successful dating app creator & third generation matchmaker whose list for the Perfect Jewish Husband gets “outed” on a talk show by her bubbie. Chris, the widowed dad & non-Jewish host helps find her a perfect husband on tv to boost his ratings & her app sales. Engaging & I learned a lot about Jewish culture I didn‘t know.

Clwojick Way to go! 💜 2y
