The Alchemist – Paulo Coelho
This book is very easy to read, and much like Life of Pi it is more about what you take from the book than the story being told. It is filled with fables about life and following your dream. It is very simple but at the same time provokes your thought and your will to do what it is you really want to do in life. It has been translated from Spanish into 56 other languages and is a major best seller. This book is quite small so there is no reason not to read it.

I’ve finally read The Alchemist last year because of all the fuss it’s getting. But I must say, with no offense meant to Mr. Paulo Coelho, I was a little disappointed with his writing style. Too poetic, maybe? I like his positivism, though, and that he believes in “bad luck comes in three’s”. So true.
