The Alchemist, 25th Anniversary: A Fable About Following Your Dream

Paulo Coelho's masterpiece tells the mystical story of Santiago, an Andalusian shepherd boy who yearns to travel in search of a worldly treasure. His quest will lead him to riches far different—and far more satisfying—than he ever imagined. Santiago's journey teaches us about the essential wisdom of listening to our hearts, of recognizing opportunity and learning to read the omens strewn along life's path, and, most importantly, to follow our dreams.

Readers say *The Alchemist* is a lyrical, inspiring fable about pursuing dreams that resonates deeply with many through its spiritual, motivational me...
Seeing as how it took me an interminable length of time to finish this, I would say that I struggled with this book. I can't say exactly how I happened to finally connect enough with it to finish it, but I did and I'm done. I can't recommend it, because I really didn't like it much.
LOVE THIS BOOK!! (Will definitely be rereading this one) Ending was a bit caught-off-guard, seeming as how it seems like more an openly spiritual/philosophical book rather than more so religious, but philosophy and religion are at different ends of the same spectrum, so I guess I wasn’t too surprised lol.
What can I say about this book that hasn't already been said? A charming tale about the value of following your dreams.
