inpirational but sometimes too much
I got this book because I was really stressed out with my college work. I read the short passages to get me through the day sometimes. This book reminds me of the Tao Te Ching but it's very much less mystical. I find I can't read the lot thing in one sitting as Coelho's optimism is overwhelming and there isn't very much variation in the topics he uses. I guess I would appreciate a more tortured voice. Anywho, there are passages that I really identified with especially about dealing with other people, their shapes and sizes. If you enjoyed the Alchemist, I would recommend this book.
