Rated The Ice Cream Queen of Orchard Street 4/10

First person narrative of 70 years in the life of a Jewish immigrant woman who becomes an ice cream entrepreneur (think Carvel). Loved having a strong woman character ahead of her time, but I was never entirely convinced of the authenticity of the Lillian's voice. The book is unexpectedly action-packed - even with the mild character weakness, it was a fun read.
