Every Human ShouLd rEad thiS Novel...
It's rare to find a simple read with the underlying ability to change lives... yet, that is exactly what Paulo Coelho has done. This novel paves the way to thought provoking treasures. .. that will withstand the test of time. At the end of this story, you will take a deep breath, dry your eyes, and last... you will, in your mind, start seeing things within your own life that you never appreciated before. Possibly you will find your own treasure.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Waste of time
Book was a waste of time! Bottom line, "follow your dream" -- overly simplistic. Maybe ok for a teenager, but not an adult. And nearly every page had lots of ink highlighting and underlining -- which I expected because it was in "Usable" condition -- but also the long comments written in the margins were really distracting and not at all helpful.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Unexpected the size of the book. It is just small but it is good. There is a tear on the cover page which I can tape and still okay ... I hope the pages are complete .

Grabbed me from page 1
This book was a recommendation from Mel Robbins (The 5 Second Rule) and I didn't know what it would be about, but took it on faith that it was a book I needed to read. It's a novel and the story is compelling. The story mixes religous philosophy with metaphysical experiences. I'm only a short way into it (30 pages) but it grabbed me in the first page! Highly recommend!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
