4 ⭐This book reminds me of the days of Twilight. Our main character Rotem is a “Sunhead”. She is a fan of the Sunrise vampire romance novels. No one else understands her devotion to these books until she makes a new friend who finds them just as wonderful as she does. This book takes place in Israel, which for the most part doesn‘t matter, except for the parts when they‘re talking about American schools and having to learn a second language.

LibrarianRyan I find that quite funny. However, this story is its own romance and knowing that it‘s OK to be a little bit different, to like what you like, and like who you like. This book is very sweet and endearing and I wish it went further than it did, but it ended at a perfect happily ever after. 3mo
