All is well until Elizabeth marries her brother, moves to her hometown, and becomes the daughter Rachelβs mother always wanted: popping out babies named after her crazy dead Jewish relatives. In this comic novel, readers who delighted in Speed Shrinking will find amusement in Rachelβs desperate actions to prove herself worthy in the eyes of her traditional familyβand navigate the precious waters between best friends.
