Coehlo fans, readers of inspirational works.
I saw this in the new book section of the public library, and I decided I had to take check it out. This small volume is a collection of quotes from Coehlo's various writings. The book is organized by themes. It is a quick read, but it is one that invites reflection and thought.

all Coelho's fans
I love this book!!
The quotes are great and very inspirational,
they are all from Paulo Coelho's writings.

Then I think you can start reading the book which quotes you like best..

"No one day is like another,
each tomorrow has its special miracle,
its magic moment in which old universes
are destroyed and new stars are created."
Life- a book filled with wonderful thoughts like this all by Paulo Coelho.
Quick and inspirational read that I keep coming back to.

If you love his books, this one is simply a collection of quotes from his work. I found myself flipping it open and just reading a quote or two when I needed that inspirational kick up the backside.

Beautiful quotations from his other books, which I have not read. I'm going to start move The Alchemist to the top of my stack now that I've read this little collection. Lovely. Inspiration.

Fun, crisp presentation of Coelho quotations organized by concept: love, chance, etc. A great gift, albeit to one's self.
