Mr. Perfect on Paper: A Novel by Jean Meltzer    416 pages    

This book is a real charmer.   It gives you so much great information about Jewish life and teaches you so much about the Jewish faith you will be in awe.   There is also a little Yiddish thrown in.   The story revolves around a third generation Jewish Matchmaker and her Bubbe (Grandmother).   Seems granddaughter, Dara Rabinowitz, can find the perfect match for others, but, not herself.   Through lots of great storyline it eventually comes down to Dara and her Grandmother going on national television on a Today Show type format and to boost their ratings they have Dara come on the show and go on dates with eligible Jewish suitors to find her Hebrew Prince Charming.   Her dates turn out to be hilarious like mini sitcoms with one ordeal after another, one embarrassing occurrence after another the t.v. show is killing in the ratings war while Dara experiences one humiliating event after another.  Then she meets the Jewish doctor who checks every box on her husband list...except....well I will let you read the book to find out but this is a really fun read.   I recommend this one to Middle Schooler on up to seniors.   You will laugh, you will learn, you will want to yell MOZEL TOV!  and you will enjoy this read.
