Nofar is an average teenage girl - so average, in fact, that she's almost invisible. Serving customers ice cream all summer long, she is desperate for some kind of escape. But one afternoon, a terrible lie slips from her tongue. And suddenly everyone wants to talk to her: the press, her schoolmates, and even the boy upstairs. He is the only one who knows the truth, and he is demanding a price for his silence.

What a disservice a reader’s mispronunciation of foreign names can do to a wonderful story.

Sensitive, clever beautifully written

Irrespective of your age, this poignant story is touching. You feel the protagonist’s embarrassments and clumsiness, the humanness of all the characters and their fragility and strength. Quick, engrossing and lovely.
