Mila recommends...


Veronika Decides to Die is truly the best book I have read. There are so many truths about life and so many lessons that can change one's view on the world, that I do not think it is necessary to say what it is about. Read it and you will see. What I want to say is that Paolo Coehlo's style, simple and pure, can grab the attention of the reader from the first sentence and keep it until the end. I hope it will bring you the same relief and inner peace it brought me.

Ms. Potash's note: I liked By The River Piedra I sat down and Wept, The Devil and Miss Prym and The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho - books with similar themes about living life.

  1. The only book I've read by Paulo Coelho is "Eleven Minutes" and I really enjoyed it. So probably I'll read this one during the Christmas break.

  2. I was thinking about reading a book of his, but i was wondering which one exactly. I guess now I know where I will start from.

  4. I will try to find some time to read it, because I've always wanted to read some of Coelho's books, but I never knew which one to start. Now I know :].
