A beautifully written book, The Alchemist holds the attention of the reader from the moment we meet Santiago the shepherd boy. I think what we like about the book is its masterful storytelling style. The author takes us on a journey into faraway lands, where we meet fascinating, inspirational characters who show us how to live big. It's a book about following your dreams and meeting your destiny on the other side of the page. A perfect winter weekend read.
