This is an excellent read that should be shared with others, and I'd definitely recommend this book for everyone to read. After reading this book you will be sufficiently imbued with a deep sense of respect and most importantly, patience, to begin the journey of discovery and reflection that will occur when you read this magnificent contemporary fictional novel, "The Tenth."This is a well crafted story and I absolutely enjoyed reading it from start to finish. It's an absorbing and attention-grabbing work that had me engaged from the beginning. The story flows from scene to scene effortlessly, and the author shows exceptional ability when it comes to storytelling. There's an abundance of well illustrated scenes that really make you feel like you are right there in the story, and that's something I really look for in a good book.Although it's a story that you may not want to get personally attached to, the author displays an ability to allow the reader just to observe also. It really is a moving read that stirs the heart.The story had every element a good story should have. An exciting plot, attention to detail, but best of all fleshed out, well-written and well-rounded character development. This interesting and compelling work, as I said, had my attention from the start and there are twists and turns in this page turner that will take the reader on a compelling and emotional journey! Also, the writing style is friendly and straightforward which makes for an enjoyable read.It's one of those stories that come along once in awhile that makes you want to read it non-stop until you get to the end. I'm giving nothing further away here. And this, I hope, will only add to the mystery and enjoyment for the reader!I'll certainly be looking forward to reading more from Smadar Shir in the future!
