What are good books that have jewish main characters / "Jewish themed" books? I’m Jewish and I just want some good books to read during winter break. What are your suggestions?
I’m 16 years old

Hi Hannah (the Jewish Princess)

What age-range are you looking for?

A classic, no matter what age, I would say is Number the Stars by Lois Lowry (http://www.loislowry.com/number_stars.html) I’m sure you know it, but if you haven’t heard of it I’ll cut and paste a short synapsis:

"How brave are you, little Annemarie?" Uncle Henrik asks his ten-year-old niece. It is 1943, and to Annemarie Johansen, life in Copenhagen is a complicated mix of ordinary home and school life, food shortages, and the constant presence of Nazi soldiers. Bravery seems a vague virtue, one possessed by dragon-slaying knights in the bedtime stories she tells her younger sister, Kirsti. Too soon, she herself is called upon for courage.

As the German troops begin their campaign to "relocate" all the Jews of Denmark, the Johansens take in Annemarie’s best friend, Ellen Rosen, and pretend she is part of the family. Ellen and Annemarie must think quickly when three Nazi officers arrive late one night and question why Ellen is not blond, like her sisters.

Through Annemarie’s eyes, we see the Danish Resistance as they manage to smuggle almost the entire jewish population, nearly 7000 people, across the sea to Sweden. In this tale of an entire nation’s heroism, Lois Lowry reminds us that there is pride and human decency in the world even during a time of terror and war.

For more sophisticated books that will last longer than two or three days a good source of books is http://www.eichlers.com/ where you could look up some interesting titles, then go to http://www.amazon.com to maybe read a few pages to see if you like it.

I’m sure you’ll find something you’ll love!

Good luck!

Is it the same as going up to J.K. Rowling and telling her that your interpretation of the Harry Potter books is better than hers?

I think it is supremely arrogant for anyone to impose their interpretation of anything onto anyone else. There is nothing wrong,however, in studying, and living by your own interpretations.
And btw, your example of J.K. Rowling, is not a good one. I’ve been to a number of events where authors speak, and take questions from the audience. A good number of them are interested in hearing how the readers interpret their work.
Peace and Namaste!

I realize there is no mention of Christ in Judaism. My question is around the time that we know as the Messianic era for Christians, were there books/papers being scribed and written that exist today within judaism?

Thanks in advance!
Thanks for answering Kismet. does that mean there are writings that were actually written when Jesus was alive or written thousands of years before, such as the Torah?

The books we refer to nowadays existed then. Namely, the TANAKH (jewish Bible), mystical texts, and commentaries on the TANAKH.
