OLDER FICTION
Zadoff, Allen

Since You Left Me

(3) YA When Sanskrit's flighty yoga-teacher mom misses parent-teacher conferences at his strict private Jewish school again, he tells the administration that she was in a terrible accident. As the lie snowballs at school and within their community, Sanskrit continues to strive for his mom's attention and also figure out his own spiritual beliefs. Both struggles feel authentic in this often-humorous story.
