Alchemist

The book the Alchemist by Paulo Coelho is telling you that everybody has a special destiny and not everybody can do it because it takes hard work. This book is a modern classic. The Book is about a spanish sheppard that travels from Spain to the Egyptian desert to find a treasure buried in the pyramids. He meets some people on the way to find the treasure like a gypsy woman, a man who calls his self king, and the alchemist. Nobody knows what the treasure is until they get to the pyramid and the treasure they find when they finally get there is precious stones, gold masks adorned with red and white feathers, and stone statues embedded with jewels. Than at the end he says "im coming Fatima". I did not like this boy because it was hard to understand and it was long. It was hard to understand because when i read the book i forgot what i read and didnt get what i read but towards the end of the book i started to get what the book was about and i started to like it a little more. But over all i didnt like the Alchemist. I think somebody elses should read it beacause they might like it just because i didnt doesnt mean they will fell the same they have to read it for there self.
