I‘ve only read the tagged book by this #SouthAmericanAuthor, and wasn‘t impressed. Are other examples of his work worth reading?

Susanita It‘s a little polarizing, but I loved 5y
jen_the_scribe The Alchemist for sure. 5y
OriginalCyn620 I haven‘t read this author either. 5y
Lcsmcat This may be an unpopular opinion, but I find him pretentious and overrated. There are so many South American authors - no need to read one that doesn‘t click for you. 5y

This book is like the updated version of Khalil Gibran's The Prophet. I think that is why I found this one just okay. I could not stop thinking of The Prophet while listening to this audiobook. I think I would have enjoyed this more if I read the physical book instead. Still, it was very poignant and beautifully written. Jeremy Irons did a lovely job narrating. 3.5 out of 5.

Love is only a word, until we decide to let it possess us with all its force.

Love is only a word, until someone arrives to give it meaning.

And to those who believe that adventures are dangerous, I say, try routine; that kills you far more quickly.

Somehow, we find peace among books it feels like they're talking to us. And those words have a certain soothe in them which helps us cope up.

The last lesson of a saint who is about to leave. The question were raised and he answered them.

Enjoyed the way it introduced its wisdom. It felt lile something I needed to read to start anew.

Just started this one. It‘s not what I expected or really wanted, but Jeremy Irons‘s voice is keeping me enthralled!

Defeat is for the valiant. Only they will know the honour of losing and the joy of winning
I am not here to tell you that defeat is a part of life: we all know that. Only the defeated know Love. Because it is in the realm of love that we fight our first battles-and generally lose. I am here to tell you that there are people who have never been defeated.
They are the ones who never fought.
They managed to avoid scars, humiliations...

I had a difficult time reading this book. Maybe it's because after The Alchemist I had such high hopes for a similar book...I've decided to begin another and see if that spurs my progress with it.

Our recent #summersantagoesostal box with all its amazing books & goodies (thanksagain @Megnogged ), sent me back in time to my winter gifts from @ptkpepe98
He marked this book with his favorite passages😍 Finally I began reading it yesterday, savored it slowly, as I waited for my son, busy in a bike shop.

ptkpepe98 I love that book! I hope you're enjoying it.😀😎 7y
kspenmoll @ptkpepe98 So far it resonates- want to share certain passages with my son. I am reading it in small bites. ❤️ 7y

Started listening to this one on audio and felt it deserved so much more focus, I'm switching to ebook. Oh, how I love Paulo Coelho!! He's one I wish I could've met. What an amazing mind!

As always, Coehlo shared some incredible wisdom in this book. There are sentences so powerful they make you clutch your heart. It's preachy in that signature Coehlo way, so you have to be in the right mindset when reading it.
