Summary

Summary

shiksa n. Yiddish
1: term used to describe non-Jewish women
2: a quintessential blonde beauty
3: a Jewish boy's dream
4: a Jewish girl's nightmare

After splitting up with her gorgeous WASP-y boyfriend, Jewish New Yorker Aimee Albert decides to take her mother’s advice and find a nice Jewish boy. The only trouble is that the Jewish guys are falling for the blonde Shiksas. Hair dye, green contacts, and a few mannerisms borrowed from her best friend transform her into a Shiksa Goddess and she attracts a wonderful Jewish man. Now the question is how long will the charade go on? The Shiksa Syndrome is a tale of love and identity, and how the search for one can sometimes play havoc with the other.

“Audie Award nominee Hillary Huber brings Aimee, her family, and her friends to life, capturing each character’s distinct dialect, accent, and tone of voice. Recommended for fiction collections in public libraries.” Library Journal (starred review)
