Due to a small confusion on my part I ended up reading this book last but I'm happy to have finished the series on a high note.
I liked the change in setting, I've always thought the Rabbi was better suited to the college than to the synagogue. The characters where all interesting, from Small's replacement to the other teachers to the students.

Have enjoyed this series of books and learned a bit about Judaism. Rabbi Small is an interesting but not a “lovable” character.
