Meh. I didn‘t enjoy The Alchemist, so why did I even read this? Not sure but it was on my bookshelf and I‘m in quarantine. I‘m also not religious so this book is probably great for some people, just not for me. #quarantinereads

This book is keeping me awake, and not just my eyes but also an awakening of the spirit.
New pick from the library
"We can never judge the lives of others, because each person knows only their own pain and renunciation. It's one thing to feel that you are on the right path, but it's another to think that yours is the only path."
This book is weird. That's probably not the best way to word a review, but that's my first thought. I feel like I just kind of spent my time reading it, but didn't get anything out of it. Just odd. This one is a pan for me. I don't hate it, I just kind of wish I had my time back. 😕
Okies - some of these aren‘t actually $1.99-, a few are a tad higher but The Valkyries, The Devil and Miss Prym, Veronica Decides to Die and the Titled, which are some of my favourite of Coelho‘s work ARE all on sale today!! 😊😊😊😊 Run to Amazon, run!! 🏃🏻♀️🏃🏻♀️🏃🏻♀️🏃🏻♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃🏽♀️🏃🏽♀️🏃🏽♀️🏃🏽♀️🏃🏽♀️🏃🏾♀️🏃🏾♀️🏃🏾♀️🏃🏾♀️🏃🏾♀️🏃🏿♀️🏃🏿♀️🏃🏿♀️🏃🏿♀️🏃🏿♀️🏃🏿♀️🏃🏼♀️🏃🏼♀️🏃🏼♀️🏃🏼♀️🏃🏻♀️
After re-reading this, my love for it did not lessen but it actually grew. I am not a fan of Paulo Coelho but this one is exceptional. It is a combination of religion and love. It is sad and happy at the same time. I really do love the ending. It had an unexpected twist in the end which I truly love. I love Pilar's character, I can easily relate to her, her insecurities, her fears and her dreams.
I recommend this to everybody.
"A fall from the third floor hurts as much as a fall from the hundredth. If I have to fall, may it be from a high place."

Another gorgeous Paulo Coelho book that makes me cry.
"No, I'm not mistaken. I know you don't love me. But I'm going to fight for your love. There are some things in life that are worth fighting for".
