Kissing Girls on Shabbat

Perfect for fans of Unorthodox or Brazen, Kissing Girls on Shabbat tells the story of a young woman's desperate attempt to protect herself and her children while struggling to accept her queerness before leaving a hyper-controlling Hasidic community.

Reviews

“Lyrical and evocative, Glass offers an immersive read and an unflinching view of life in a secluded ultra-religious sect of Judaism. However, it is also, and perhaps foremost, the story of the self-shattering struggles that many experience when rigid conformity and compliance override freedom; and where silence, secrecy, and obedience outweigh truth, health, or hope. Sara Glass carved her own path to life, and her book may well help shape it for others.”
—Na’ama Yehuda, author of Communicating Trauma
