The Alchemist

This is the fictional version of “The Secret.” Which, truly, is also fiction. Saying that anything you want can be achieved by simply believing it is dangerous and wrong.

The first half of the book leading up to the desert was much better because it depicted a boy striking out into new lands and doing well by working hard. Once we get to the desert section, I found the book ridiculous.

Welp, at least this short title got me one more book closer to my annual reading goal!
