Hello everyone!
today I just finished the last book in my summer reading challenge list: The Alchemist. I must say that this one was a quick one to read, it was not really difficult, however it has rich content that makes you slow down a bit and reflect on different aspects of life.
I heard awesome things about this book and about the quit, so of course I had really high expectations that to be honest were not fully met. Do not get me wrong, it is a great book that you can read on a weekend, however I believe it’s not for everyone. I did not do a background check on the author, but from the content and reflections in the story, I dare to say that he is really influenced by his religious beliefs. Personally I do believe in God, that’s why I think it was easy for me to relate and find a deeper meaning in the different thoughts and actions of the main character. However for those out there that might not be religious, well..you might not find it that interesting.
Despite of what you believe in..or if you don’t this book is good and makes you appreciate life. As I said before is a light reader, so if you have some free time I would encourage you to read it.
At the moment I’m looking for books to read, If you have any suggestions please leave them in a comment down below! 🙂
Love,
Lily
