The Alchemist by Paul Coelho was such a cute feel good story. It is based off a young man who decides to go out looking for his life‘s purpose, which he dreams is to travel to the pyramids where he will find his treasure. Along the way he meets other people, works, is robbed by thieves, etc. The story contains all the struggles and positive things that happen in life and he gets to go through it all. He falls in love, he is taught by other people, he discovers a lot about himself, and he never gives up. It’s a short read, and I read it in two days. I highly recommend it to anyone who is just looking for a little motivation to figure out who they are or why they are here. I read it while I was writing my own book and it was like a sign to keep going!
