I finished reading all the books published in English by Paulo Coelho and lend it out to Chloe and Debra. His books are quite good read. Millions of readers' life have been affected by his words. (Julia Roberts, Bill Clinton, Madonna etc) Bill Clinton even invited Paulo for a meeting after reading The Alchemist, which was introduced by his daughter.
Paulo writes in Portuguese and most of his works are translated into English and Chinese.

bryan_shiro, hello!
I'm a big Paulo Coelho's fan and I don't know if you heard about his blog
http://www.paulocoelhoblog.com
I've started as a fan and now I'm collaborating with him and thought that you would like to enter his universe.
Check the blog, if you want, or subscribe to his newsletter
http://www.warriorofthelight.com/engl/index.html
You'll see a community of warriors of light sharing ideas, dreams and most importantly following their personal legend.
QUOTE OF THE DAY:
When every day seems the same it is because we have stopped noticing the good things that appear in our lives.
(The Alchemist)
See u there and have a great day!

Dear Aart,
Thank you for the information. I have been reading Paulo's Blog frequently.
Will subscribe to the newsletter now.
Well, hope my friends might be interested in reading some of the books. Just want to share with all of them something meaningful.
hey Pek, I did not know you are such avid reader !
Coelho's books are everywhere and my boyfriend has a few copies but I have not started to read yet.
Since I am so free now, I picked up reading again. hey, you inspired me. I will try to catch up :)
Cool!! Start with The Alchemist. His most famous work so far.
Coelho's books are not too long written, and you will enjoy finishing it quite fast as most of his books are page turners.
Enjoy!
Hey Pek, don't call me Shirley. I am more used to Xue Fen with high school friends :)
Yup. We have Alchemist at home. Will update you when I finish reading :) My bf is an avid reader too, but less after he met me. Haa haa !
