Here's my 5* review

Zoe wrote: "I'm reading 'The Alchemist' by Paul Coelho. It's about a young boy's journey through life. It's a very good read." I found this book fascinating! Such a unique story. I don't think it will be for everyone, but I was drawn to its charm. Some of the wisdom in it I find profound, but some of it I find worrisome, like "You must understand that love never keeps a man from pursuing his destiny." I'm not sure about that gem. Worth the read, though.

Your review makes it sound interesting and the dark side of social media is definitely current.

East of Eden

When reading this classic which was wrttten in 1952, the style of writing is so completely different than current styles. There are different characters that we read about but there are no chapters from their point of view. We have the omniscient narrator and the style is completely straightforward. I am enjoying it.

OK, Little Bird We all deal with loss and grief - how we process and move through grief plays a big role in how we come through it. OK, Little Bird takes readers on an unforgettable father daughter journey and connection - when unthinkable loss and grief grip Little Bird, she learns to navigate her deep pain with the gift of humor from her father.

Humor is an incredible coping tool and even in the darkest of situations, its healing powers are miraculous. Inspiring, quick easy read, a story you'll not soon forget - a reminder of someone special in your own life.
