A review by coffeedrops
The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho
2.0
Finished reading the book just a few mins ago. It's definitely going in the category of books I'm never in a mood to read.
I didn't feel relatable or attached to any of the characters; I neither liked nor hated any of them. I believe that we can control our destinies, but I don't agree what this book tries to say at all. Also I just don't believe in God or omens and stuff like that so almost this entire book was a drag to read. Also, how heck does a person (genuinely) fall in love with someone after just seeing them for the first time?? It makes no freaking sense to me, they don't even know each other. Anyways, I very much didn't like this book.
Thus, I give it a generous rating of 2/5 stars!
