The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho

This book was translated into about a million languages and there’s so much hype and following around it. I read it very quickly. I got the point: follow your dreams and the rest will work itself out, obstacles are hidden opportunities to learn, etc. I just didn’t enjoy the book as much as I thought that I should have.

    BOO. I hated this book. What an easy way out. I could write this book. Cheesy, stupidly written, overkill, buzzkill, I really almost hated it.
