Sacha LambSim Kern - Preorder THE FREE PEOPLE’S VILLAGEWHEN THE ANGELS LEFT THE OLD COUNTRY by @mosslamb is such a delightful, cozy read for a cold night. Although it’s really no surprise that I was gonna love a queer Jewish coming-to-America story that’s like GOOD OMENS meets YENTL.

And I can't wait to see more from this author.
