Michael Henslee writes the following about The Alchemist :
The Alchemist is a vary good book full of adventure and fate. this fiction book deals with fate, alchemy, and journey to find your "treasure." This book also describes Personal Legends(destiny) and principles of favorability(beginner's luck). I recommend this book because the moment you start reading it you will instantly connect with Santiago on his journey from a shepherd to a crystal shop helper to an alchemist. Once you start reading this book you will not want to stop. One reason I recommend this book is because you will learn several life lessons through out the book. One lesson you learn is "never give up even how bad the situation gets just keep trying. Santiago is challenged to quite but does not, even when he is beaten up. If I had the chance to change something in the book I would put more action in ever part, because it seem a little slow for me.But if you happen to have a copy of the book read it and tell the world how it was to you.
