Welcome to Litsy!

Somewhat close to a pan

Too late for #Brazil (Brazilian author) #foodandlit but this Audible daily deal still might be of interest.

Paolo Coelho just reposted a picture of one of the boards of Allontheboard yesterday. It is like the favourite band of my favourite band. 🤣
(Kraftklub - “die Lieblingsband meiner Lieblingsband”)

When we love, we always strive to become better than we are. When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too.

"Never be Ashamed"
'Accept what Life offers you and try to drink from every cup.
All wines should be tasted; some should only be sipped, but with others, drink the whole bottle.'
'YOU CAN ONLY KNOW A GOOD WINE IF YOU HAVE FIRST TASTED A BAD ONE'

Brida is about a 21 year old girl and her quest for truth. The book has witches, magic spells and rituals but not the Harry Potter kind. It revolves on the idea of soulmate and how no matter what we achieve in life, it will be incomplete if we haven‘t found our soulmate. The book has some great lines about life. Thing is i found some parts of the book to be boring &the way love and soulmates are presented did not appeal to me.Still worth a read.

'When you find path, you must not be afraid. You need to have sufficient courage to make mistakes. Disappointment, defeat and despair are the tools God uses to show us the way'

#morningcommutebook Brida by Paulo Coehlo. Magical 📚🤗

Another good read by Paulo Coehlo, I read this on my trip to Charleston.

Brida
Aaah Finally ... Finished Reading another Paulo Coelho‘s work ...! 🎀Its all about gifts you possess and “Soulmate” #book7of2019 #magical_tale

"Gardners always recognize one another, because they know that in the history of each plant lies the growth of the whole World."

A nice short book for my #audiocommute, after the two tomes I just did back-to-back #cloudLibrary #LatinxAuthors

I‘m not too sure how I feel about this. The Alchemist was an incredible read. But Brida was, ‘meh‘. The most interesting part of this is the religious references. Though even then, the religious part of the novel is skewed and unsure in of itself. The relationship with the magus is almost perverted which is disturbing in the teacher/student aspect - considering the age gap.

Didn‘t like this book at all. I hate when love is shown as an illusion or suffered fantasy.

Current read. Absolutely loving it also.

Today‘s Op Shop Haven bargains were half price too. Never too early to prepare for the kids growth spurts me thinks. At 7 and 9 they are already full of questions. Totally comfortable talking to them about it but these are just incase they don‘t want to talk to me one day.

"Nothing in the world is ever completely wrong. Even a stopped clock is right twice a day."

Having the courage to take the steps we always wanted to take is the only way of showing that we trust in God.

'Nothing in the world is ever completely wrong, my dear,' said her father, looking at the clock. 'Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.'

😐😐😐

Such a great love story. I'm kind of sad it's on the shorter end.

Great things are expected from Paulo Coelho and Brida was no less. I've been meaning to read it from quite a few days. I am totally fascinated with this one. “Finding one important thing in your life doesn't mean you have to give up all the other important things.” That's my favourite quote. Do tell me what's yours.

Here are my #somethingborrowed books. At the moment I don't have anything from library but these are my friend's books that are spending time in my TBR pile. #booktober #day7

The whole of man's life on the face of earth can be summed up by the search for his soulmate. He may pretend to be running after wisdom, money or power, but none of that matters. Whatever he achieves will be incomplete if he fails to find his soulmate.

You would think a book encompassing astral travel, time travel, past lives and Wiccan rituals to be pretty darn interesting, but this kind of fell flat for me. It was a learning experience, however, so I'm happy I came across it but something about it didn't deliver. Could be me, I'm not sure.

The problem with this book is it is that I keep falling asleep when I listen. This can either mean one of three things: 1. The reader is a hypnotist. 2. The book is truly magical 3. it's boring and I have mature ADD...I'm going with #2. Lol I love the whole Cathar section. Had never heard of the Bons Hommes before!
