I read this book several years back, read it several other times but it still is the most awesome book that I have ever read. Let me hear your thoughts about the book.

I didn't see the link to the book. Did you mean this one?

“It's the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting.”

This book was enchanting. It's a great parable for persistence. As any writer seeking publication knows, persistence is required for the job. I love Paulo Coelho's perspective on spirituality: "When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.”

This book was not at all for me. A lot of Mumbo Jumbo that made me want to crawl out of my skin. I stopped reading it after about 50 pages or so.

I guess it's a matter of different strokes for different folks...
