the alchemist

favorite quote:

“ Because it’s not love to be static like the desert, nor is its love to roam the world like the wind. And it’s not love to see everything from a distance,...Love is the force that transforms and improves…” pg 157.

i finished the book "the alchemist". it was pretty good and a really easy read. simply put it is a book about life and learning to live. it was originally written in portugese. it is a fast and easy read i would definitely recommend it. now it is on to 'joy in the morning' by betty smith. the same author who wrote 'a tree grows in brooklyn' i love her. wish she was still around to write more great books.....
