(4) YA At a university in Virginia, Maya Laor, a twenty-year-old Israeli woman, restores joy and meaning to her life as she recovers from her boyfriend's death in a Tel Aviv suicide bombing. Although the dialogue is sometimes forced and the interior monologues can be repetitive, this first novel features engaging characters and maintains narrative tension throughout.
