![]() ![]() Hush is a first person story that alternates between the year 20. Her community is very tightly-knit and traditional. ![]() Gittel is a Chassidic, or Orthodox Jew who lives in Borough Park, Brooklyn within a community of other Chassidic Jews. I think that if you like hard hitting contemporary books set in unique subcultures, you should pick up a copy of Hush, it’s usually on sale on Kindle, as of typing this review it’s currently $4.61 and well worth your dollars. I find that sad because Hush is a moving story about shining the light on sexual abuse within a community that would rather sweep it under the rug. It’s taken me over three years and some pretty crappy books to finally make my way to it. Y’all, I have had Hush by Eishes Chayil (a pseudonym) to read since May 2010. Guys, it’s time for yet another WHY DID I LET THIS BOOK LANGUISH FOR SO LONG review. I feel like whenever I review an older book from my pile, I always start it off apologizing for taking FOREVER to read the book and write the review. ![]()
