About this book

A spark of attraction burns brighter each year between childhood friends in this sweeping Hanukkah romance by USA Today bestselling author Amanda Elliot.

This Hanukkah, Shira Levinson is returning home to New Jersey riding the high of achieving major milestones. Though she only just graduated from college, she's got her dream job and a perfect Los Angeles apartment—an actual miracle in the city of dreams.

Life has not been quite as kind to Leo David. Not only did he fail out of college, he was forced to move in with his estranged dad, who he still hates for cheating on his mom years ago. The only silver lining? Getting to see Shira, his childhood friend (and crush, though he’ll never tell her that) while she’s home for her family's holiday party.

But that's just the beginning. Over the next eight years, Shira's and Leo's lives spin them in all sorts of directions as they grow and change, taking them places they never imagined going. Sometimes those paths take them farther away from each other, and other times closer together. If they can only time it right, they might uncover a love that burns forever.

Praise for this book

Amanda Elliot’s Love You a Latke is a perfect book to cozy up with this holiday season. Come for the unabashed defense of Hannukah not being Jewish Christmas, stay for the tender depiction of love, community and friendship. You’ll be rooting for Seth to win Abby over from the moment he walks into her coffee shop.
Ali Rosen , author of Recipe for Second Chances and Alternate Endings
One of my favorite reads of 2024, Love You A Latke by Amanda Elliot is Hanukkah romance at its very best.
Jean Meltzer , international bestselling author of The Matzah Ball
Love You a Latke is the Hallmark Hanukkah movie I’ve been waiting for all my life...a cozy delight, and as sweet and inviting as a cup of hot chocolate on a cold winter night. I loved every word!
Jenna Levine , USA Today bestselling author of My Roommate Is a Vampire
In Eight Ways to Say I Love You, Amanda Elliot weaves an elegantly layered love story that blends all the sticky bits of young adulthood—ambition, grief, and uncertainty—with the cozy nostalgia of a holiday spent with the person that gets you most (and pushes you to be your best self). A sparkling and heartfelt romance between two childhood friends who just can’t quit each other.
Katie Naymon , author of You Between the Lines
Love You a Latke is a beautiful story with an unexpected slow burn romance and amazing supporting characters. But it’s also a story about community — the community you’re embraced by, the community you make and the magical miracle of Hanukkah.
Stacey Agdern , award-winning author of The B’Nai Mitzvah Mistake
Nothing short of transcendent.
