This was a very sweet read, and I was sorry when I swiped over the last page.The story is a journey of two people from very different worlds (or tribes) who met, couldn’t understand each other’s language, but learnt to do so by gestures (and the language of their hearts and souls. It was beautiful!), and they ended up discovering they were kindred spirits after all.It was fascinating and dreamy to follow Solena and Rundan. There was never a dull moment with these two! They couldn’t have been more different in cultures and physical appearances, but oh, how they were such a perfect match! In their journey, they learned to understand each other, deeply care for one another, and eventually fall in love.I loved that this story showed that love, when merged with truth and humility, indeed conquers ALL differences. A very sweet read indeed! I applaud Lena’s craftsmanship. This is a wonderful short story. The author managed to create a society, a world, that was incredibly believable within a limited number of pages. I couldn't help but get lost in the story as the words reached up, grabbed me, and refused to let go. The little details, the culture of the people wove their way effortless through the book and made me feel like I had spent years reading about this world instead of a short hour. Not only was the author's world building phenomenal, she also created strong characters. Each was well rounded and as real as you or me. Their pasts influenced their actions and they changed throughout the story. I feel in love with both the minor and main characters as each had something to offer the story. My one and only complaint is that this story is so short. I wanted so much more after the last page and was disappointed to find that that was indeed the end. I look forward to reading more from this author. 4 out of 5 stars.
What do You think about The Language Of Souls (2012)?
I enjoyed this book and showed that a difference in cultures can cause some major problems.

This is a good short read, well written but lacking in some depth.
