The Return of the Alchemist

I have read Paolo Coelho's "The Alchemist". I really tried to like it, but it just didn't happen. I'm sorry. I liked The Return. I spent the evening acting ditzy, trying to make up stupid theories to explain everything. Stangel was very annoyed. I was annoyed by how the children acted well, because I hate it

You lady will ASK me before attempting to read any latinamerican crap. I could've warned you that Cohelo SUCKS.

I have heard quite positive things about The Alchemist. Like it's the book of his that is actually readable and that it's not a great book, but a nice fairy tale. So I thought that since I even had read "the DaVinci Code", I might as well read that Alchemist book. I mean, alchemy is cool and all...

Yeah, I read that book too. I actually liked it in the beginning but I started getting annoyed by repetitive phrases midway (it sort of started sounding more like a self-help book than story). And then at the end it was disappointing because you expect him to earn something more original and grand than money.

Hehehee. Your dad is hot, it's a universal truth. It could be very Electra complex (or whatever the accurate female counterpart to Oedipus is, exactly) when you say it, but it isn't, because everybody thinks so.

I love calling it Electra complex. It just sounds so cool.
