๐“ฃ๐“ฑ๐“ฎ ๐“๐“ต๐“ฌ๐“ฑ๐“ฎ๐“ถ๐“ฒ๐“ผ๐“ฝ by Paulo Coelho is a folktale about one boyโ€™s journey to the pyramids of Egypt in pursuit of his Personal Legend. during his quest, he overcomes a series of obstacles that test his courage and faith in various ways, and encounters a host of characters who ultimately serve to usher him toward his destiny.

itโ€™s a spiritually invigorating parable of love, life, and the pursuit of dreams that encourages its readers to follow our hearts and indulge in our wildest desires, and reminds us to take in the sights while weโ€™re at it.

my cousin bought me this book when I was 15, during a particularly dark time in my life, but I think I needed it even more now. ๐Ÿ–ค
