The Alchemist

"The secret of happiness is to see all the marvels of the world, and never forget the drops of oil in the spoon."

I had this book on my shelf for a while - part of a reading group in work - but never got around to reading it until this week. Why did I wait so long to read such an inspirational novel - with a blend of wit and simplicity, it's an easy read but truly moving. It's so important to listen to our hearts.

The Alchemist by Paul Coelho

Thanks for the rec. This is one that I've been eyeing but haven't gotten around to yet. I'll add it to my very long list of TBRs!
