Can two sisters overlook their differences? Mixed is a hilarious yet moving story of family and faith, best served hot (or cold) with a dollop of sour cream. Sisters Ruth and Miriam Green spent most of their childhood loving each other and hating each other, treasuring each other and resenting each other. Now they're grown up their lives have taken them on very different paths, creating a rift which is proving difficult to heal. Ruth has followed her traditional Jewish upbringing. Miriam has not – and while she wants to instil her heritage in her children, they just want to fit in. As resentment, tension and divisions build within the family, can the sisters overlook their differences or will their family be torn apart? 'A lively, original, absorbing novel packed with beautiful observations and brilliant one-liners' Rebecca Smith 'A wonderful, enriching read that is about all families – warm and loving but also fraught with secrets, unspoken rules and quiet disappointments' Francesca Jakobi 'An entertaining read, laugh-out-loud in places, yet thoughtful and compassionate on the serious issues of intermarriage and identity' Andrew Sanger
