The Alchemist

While certain aspects of this books are quite extraordinary, this really got me thinking that the simplest things that one could ever want are right in from of them. And, that in order to realise that, sometimes you have to take a very indirect route to understand that. I really enjoyed this book because of that. It's very self reflective and allows the reader to really identify with at least one of the characters, if not multiple.

Definitely worth a read if you want a short inspirational story.
