This book waited patiently on my TBR Mountain Range for 4 years and now I can’t put it down. I have been late for work because I was reading and last night after work, I read for a couple hours instead of starting supper. Oh well, priorities.
A sacred book of the Jews was saved from destruction in Sarajevo and an expert has been called in to restore the 500 year old book, but some mysteries have been discovered.
Less than 100 pages to go...

This book finally arrived to Finland and onto my TBR-pile :) Thank you so much for this Valentine's Day 2021 gift!

The book seems fascinating, I may need to re-arrange my reading priorities to get my hands on this soon. But, as it is with many of us book crossers, the library books in between the bookcrossing books cause some challenges. So many books, so little time!

Just wanted to let y'all know that I am finally reading this charming book. How intense, captivating and detailed a story! Am taking it slowly to enjoy every chapter of it.

Journal Entry 6 by Ametisti at Järvenpää, Uusimaa / Nyland Finland on Monday, May 23, 2022
Enjoyed this captivating story very much. So many interesting and sad moments in history were included in and I learned quite a bit about the moments of the history in our troubled Europe. It was disturbing at times to read the book while the current war in Ukraine flooded in the news. Could not help thinking "have we not learned anything yet? Cannot we listen to one another even after all these centuries together?".

In addition to the brilliant story, the book is very nice to hold in hand and the paper soft to turn. The covers are also very beautiful.
