2018 Next Generation Indie Book Awards Finalist in Relationships (Non-Fiction) “Interwoven with the story of Gendler's great-aunt and illustrated with family photographs, the author's story offers an intimate and interesting . . . look at one woman's life choices and their outcomes . . . [a] candid and heartfelt memoir.” —Kirkus “Piercing. The silver lining of hope, faith, and healing will leave readers stirred.” —Redbook Magazine “Jumping Over Shadows is a timely and thought-provoking book, one that I urge people of all faiths and backgrounds to read and reread.” —Windy City Reviews “Gendler skillfully integrates the history of her family, which she meticulously researched, with her own modern love story.” —Jewish Book Council “Is it a fair comparison when the author weaves her love story with that of her great-aunt who married a Jew in Czechoslovakia fifty years before? It turns out it is.” —Story Circle Book Reviews
