Shelf Control is a feature where bloggers pick an unread book from our shelves and talk about it a little. It's supposed to be a Wednesday thing but I have French Movie Mercredi on Wednesdays already, so. Shelf Control is hosted at
BookshelfFantasies.com.
This week's selection is
Ariel Samson: Freelance Rabbi, by MaNishtana. It was recommended to me by my friend Heidi, a synagogue librarian from Florida. I've known Heidi for years and a while ago I was asking Facebook friends for their recommendations for me and she knows my taste pretty well so I picked this up from Bookshop.org right away.
"Ariel Samson is just your run of the mill anomaly: a 20-something black Orthodox Jewish rabbi looking for love, figuring out life, and floating between at least two worlds. Luckily, it gets worse."
I mean, that sounds pretty great, right?
How and when I got it:
I bought it at the end of April from Bookshop.org.
Why I Want to Read It:
Great premise, area of literature I'm interested in. I mean, given that description, why wouldn't I want to read it?
You can pick up your own copy at the link above. I receive a small commission on all affliate-linked sales.

That does sounds pretty awesome! I'm so curious about the author -- clearly a pen name!
