What Readers Are Saying

As soon as I saw that Sara Morozow and Rivkah Slonim authored a book together, I clicked order. I had no need to inquire further — the authors are two of the most impressive Jewish, female scholars of our time.

When I received the book, I realized that this work is something absolutely foundational yet also groundbreaking. Nothing like it exists on the market. As it says on the back, 'no more whispering behind closed doors!'

The book's premise is that intimacy is essential to healthy Jewish life and therefore there is no need to shy away from the topic. On the contrary, it is imperative for all Jewish adults to know what their Torah has to say about this most important topic. The authors have gifted the world with a heavily sourced, halachic work of art that reads smoothly and easily. It includes everything that one might be afraid to ask — in plain English, discussed like you are sitting in a friend's living room.

This book is like a conversation with wise, clear thinking, spiritually connected but also very down to earth mentors. It's a must read for Jewish brides embarking on the grand journey of marriage. The authors say it like it is, laying out the structure and values of Jewish marriage in a clear and comprehensive way. I'm delighted that such a book now exists.

I read this book because it is a trusted source for learning more about the important topic of marriage. I found this book to be very clear and engaging, covering many areas that aren't adequately addressed elsewhere. With over 400 pages of content, stories, and lessons, Mrs. Morozow and Mrs. Slonim do a great job explaining these topics in a way that is informative, down-to-earth, and relevant. Thank you for this amazing resource!

The book is like giving every young women, Kallah, newly wed and really every woman an amazing 'aunt' who can be blunt and kind, and talk about anything sexual, in a safe and healthy way. Like a conversation. Not a drasha, or an inspiring speech, or Musar, just halachic advice that is real, open and makes space for the actual two human beings that are in the relationship to be unique humans. The kind of loving advice you would get from a knowledgeable adult confidant who knows their stuff and wants what is best for you. Really a beauty!

This book covers extremely sensitive and important topics with grace and patience. In addition to beautiful chassidic teachings, the book provides practical and helpful advice that women (and couples) of all ages and stages will benefit from. This will be my go-to gift for kallahs for many years to come.

This book is groundbreaking in its easy-to-read format that culls from classic Jewish texts and Chassidic sources, making it accessible to all those wishing to approach their marriages from a healthy and balanced perspective both hashkafically and practically. Highly recommend it!

Beautiful, well written, informative, full of spiritual guidance and practical information on so many areas related to our lives. There is a whole section on hair covering, maybe you want to know more or have people ask you questions that you are never sure how to answer. Personally, I am loving deepening my understanding of the basic Sheva Brachos. I have gained new insight and appreciation for this basic part of Jewish tradition. As a side, this book is forthcoming about intimacy and human desire, and elevating the conversation around pleasure and human needs, from a Torah lens. It pulls no punches in being explicit and educational, which speaks to the needs of teenagers today.

This book is amazing! It gives so much insight and hashkafah (ideology) that's hard to find elsewhere. I haven't finished it yet but I am enjoying reading. It is really enjoyable and interesting to read and the ideas are having a positive impact on my life.

I try to listen to, read, or watch any information that these two educators put out. Am so very excited about this book as I have found everything from the authors profound, truthful, real, modest, and educational. Really recommend.
