Z Book Review #2

The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho

Basically a modern day fairy tale about following your dream, even if you don't know what it is. This book was originally written in Portuguese and is translated. It was written very simply and is a very quick read. All this being said, I really enjoyed it, I felt like a reading a Disney Movie in book form. The tale of "the boy" traveling from his beginning in Spain then across Africa make a perfect adventure, fairy tale. If this is ever made into a movie, and I have read that it is, I hope it is a cartoon, similar to Aladdin. If only I knew my "Personal Legend" maybe I would be employed or maybe like the book states, I am too old and already forgot it.
