„Die Welt verändert sich, und wir sind Teil dieser Veränderung. Die Engel führen und beschützen uns. Trotz aller Ungerechtigkeit, obwohl Dinge mit uns geschehen, die wir nicht verdient haben, obwohl wir uns unfähig fühlen, unsere eigenen Mängel und die der Welt zu beheben, trotz aller brillanten Argumente des Großinquisitors - die LIEBE ist noch stärker und wird uns helfen zu wachsen… die Sterne, die Engel und die Wunder zu begreifen.“

Warrior of Light is someone capable of understanding the Miracle of Life,of Fighting to the Last for Something he believes in.
Everyone is capable of these things. And, though no one thinks of themselves as a Warrior of Light, we all are. 📖

My first Coehlo and um, I didn't really get it. I feel like I needed more context maybe? Seemed like I was coming into it in the middle of another story. I was also confused as to whether or not it was at all autobiographical as Coelho is the main character. I did like the desertscape setting, the Valkyrie biker chicks, and that it was short. 🤷‍♀️

Tove_Reads He has a few I love, then a few good ones, then a few ok ones, then some crap ones. I think the 5th mountain or something was so bad. 4y
LeeRHarry I didn‘t get this one at all - I have really only liked The Alchemist by him so far. 4y
Read-y_Picker I keep putting off the Alchemist but I did read The Aleph and it resonated for a long while. 4y

“L'Anima del Mondo è alimentata dalla felicità degli uomini. O dall'infelicità, dall'invidia, dalla gelosia. Realizzare la propria Leggenda Personale è il solo dovere degli uomini. Tutto è una sola cosa. E quando vuoi davvero qualcosa, l'intero universo cospira affinché chi lo desidera con tutto sé stesso possa riuscire a realizzare i propri sogni, per quanto sciocchi possano sembrare.“ #alchimista #paulocoelho #coelho #sogni #bompiani

Not sure what to say about this book. I didn't like it. I'm glad it was short. I managed to get through it in about two hours.

PS: @Heideschrampf made this wonderful book strap. Probably the best part about this book. 😉

monalyisha What is that magnificent bookstrap?! 5y
thegirlwiththelibrarybag @monalyisha, magnificent is definitely the right word! 🤩 5y
julesG @monalyisha @thegirlwiththelibrarybag The lovely, wonderful and very talented @Heideschrampf is making them. She's made one for each of the travelling books in our round robin circle so far. She combines felt and embroidery. 5y

Megabooks Magnificent is the right word! 5y
monalyisha Wow! @Heideschrampf Do you sell them/do you have an Etsy shop? 💖 (edited) 5y
julesG @monalyisha We should persuade @Heideschrampf to open an Etsy shop. 5y
monalyisha @julesG Heck yes! Hustle. 💰 5y
Heideschrampf @julesG @monalyisha haha no definately no etsy shop, i'd be too unreliable 🙈they don't all come out as nice either, trust me. It's just to keep busy. If you have a book in mind i'm happy to make it my next project! 5y
monalyisha @Heideschrampf That‘d be amazing! Do you base it on cover design or do you brainstorm & come up with your own thang? 5y
Heideschrampf @monalyisha i usually go for something plot related. It can't be too complicated though, since my embroidery abilities are limited. So usually something symbolic. There's a few more under the #12Littens12Books hashtag if youre curious ;) 5y

Another way of the Warrior that I loved reading. There are so many great quotes in this book. I really loved it. It‘s one I‘ll read whenever I know I need it.

“The chessboard is the world; the pieces are the gestures of our daily lives; the rules of the game are what we call the laws of Nature. The player on the other side is hidden from us, but we know that his play is always fair, just, and patient.”

I love this quote. I have one more that I want to post.

I had a weird night. As I started reading this, I got super sleepy and fell asleep around 9:30p. Very early for me. Then I randomly woke up at 11:30p not sure if it was am or pm. Then fell back asleep and woke up at 1:30a. I decided to read a little more.

This book is so inspirational. It is a very quick read. You‘d only need a couple of hours. But I highly recommend it if you need to read something to help through a rough time in your life.

5/5
