Page B. Inman

Format: Paperback
This was a great read and informative, both in Russian history and in Jewish culture in that area in the 1900's. I loved Molly's transition from a planner to a discoverer of her family and herself.
Molly realizes the struggles her family had to endure to leave their mother country and start new. She discovers the other family members she didn't know about and learns how to become Malka, which is Hebrew for queen.
Thorough out the book you learn Jewish terms, Russian and what it was like for Russian Jews living in the 1900's and how their lives changed in a blink of an eye. If you like historical fiction with a touch of fantasy thrown in, then you'll love this book.
