The Alchemist

a short read, but was a little slow in the middle for me so i got stuck for a while. overall, i do recommend this book for others. when i finished it, i felt inspired and hopeful that i will some day realize my own personal legend and be able to help others along the way.

i didn't realize this book had such negative reviews, but i agree with some that we should still think critically about everything we read. this book was written a while ago, but i do wish it wasn't framed so that Fatima's personal legend was basically being a desert woman that awaits her male lover her entire life. however, i do believe in how the universe conspires to help you achieve what you want in life, so if you believe in this too then you will enjoy it
