Book Description
THE GROSTON RULES is an edgy book for high school readers. With suspenseful twists and turns, it is a captivating and lighthearted high school tale about teens in trouble, surviving high school through their strong friendships. Adults, young adults and mature teens won’t be able to put it down, because the story is as much about teen survival and unschooling as it is a young adult coming of age tale, rife with dark humor, teen comedy, fuck ups, and the occasional raunchy teen story. It’s a fast paced laugh out loud book that teenagers will actually read – a naughty high school teen comedy that you can’t put down. All they wanted was to get high and graduate... Isaac, Adam, Helen, Charlie, Sean, Jésus and Rover had planned on coasting through their final semester at Ashby Bryson High. Get stoned, play video games, get into college, and get the hell out of Groston. Instead, the shit kept hitting the fan – over and over and over again. Fights, floods, freezes…. And then school got shut down. So, they threw the rules out the window and made up their own. The very first novel to be serialized on Spotify! Advance Praise for THE GROSTON RULES: “A group of high schoolers deals with mishaps and disasters six months before graduation in this coming-of-age novel.... Immensely likable characters on an enthralling and entertaining journey.” – Kirkus Reviews

Book Description
Early Reviews - "In the spirit of Sholem Aleichem… These stories of identical twins, confused from birth, will charm with their simplicity and sincerity." – AudioFile Life in The Village is rarely quiet or uneventful, but after The Village Twins are born, everything gets even crazier. "…a good story very well told" – The Jewish Independent Rebecca and Jacob Schlemiel are looking forward to their first child, but the delivery of Abraham and Adam throws them both for a loop. These boys are so identical that their parents, teachers and eventually their wives can't tell them apart. To be honest, until their fifth birthday they weren't totally sure which was who. The Village Twins is a comedy set in a place you'd love to visit and a past that never existed. You'll meet all the members of the community, who come together to raise this unruly duo. Adam is the troublemaker who loves to create elaborate pranks. Abraham is quieter and usually takes the blame for his brother's misadventures. As teens, they both fall in love with Rosa Kalderash, a wandering princess. This might have worked out, but the Russian army is looking for Adam, who falls in love with Rivka Cantor, the merchant's daughter, who thinks he's Abraham.… Confused? Imagine how they felt. The Village Twins will make you laugh and smile, and perhaps shed a tear. It's is a delicious and exciting novel of confused identities told in delicious bite-sized chapters. You won't want to put it down, but if you do, you will come back to it again and again… At last, one of the very first ebooks is restored to its full glory. The Village Twins is a book to savor. It's a timeless book that resonates in today's fast-paced digital society. More Early Reviews "…it's clear from the start that there is nothing factual about this book, which traces the lives of the Schlemiel family and the community that surrounds them. [Readers] will really get the humor written between the lines.… the mix-ups are many and the potential for laughter abundant" —Jewish Book World "Wired Words/Electric Prose" – Providence Phoenix "Schlemiels in cyberspace… old-fashioned storytelling in a newfangled way." —The Providence Journal "Laughing out loud humor… very poignant and sweet" —Jewish Herald Voice, Houston, TX
