A review by trudy_joan
The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho
4.0
I was expecting about what I got. I feel unsettled, and I almost regret reading this book. It has many truths, but there was nothing of value that I have not known.
Every time a person discovers what their journey will be, and every time they win a battle, and at that triumphant moment when they know their treasure, their heart-- it is new. I know that longing to tell everyone, and share the joy. Words will always fail. There is nothing that has not been, yet there is always more.
This book is really beautiful and wise and understanding in places, but I cannot take it all.
Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
