Join Not Your Bubbe’s Book Club host Richelle Gewertz and dive into “Rules for Ghosting,” the acclaimed debut by queer Jewish author Shelly Jay Shore. This isn’t just a ghost story—it’s a deeply felt exploration of queer healing and identity. The novel follows Ezra Friedman, a trans Jewish man working in his family’s funeral home, who must navigate a “gift” for seeing spirits while managing a complicated crush on a handsome local volunteer.
From a mother’s surprise coming-out at a family seder to a touching M/M romance, the story celebrates a world where queer and Jewish identities don’t just coexist—they thrive together.
Come for the wine and snacks, and stay for a conversation about found family, trans identity, and the beautiful messiness of living (and haunting) while queer.
