Wonderful and insightful

Along with the alchemist reading those 2 books transfers you to euphoric stage of not nostalgic but rather top of the mountain isolation feel .. From there our mind is clear ...

Strange yet beautiful

I chose this book because it was written by Paulo Coelho. I had read and listened to the “The Alchemist” years ago & loved it. I was having a difficult time with this book in the beginning because it seemed very odd. The knowledge of the author and his style of writing urged me to carry on and as suspected, I was not disappointed. There is a lot of knowledge and wisdom in this book and it would be worthwhile to go through it more slowly for me to absorb it all. Be open minded when you start this book because it only gets better!

The story kept me interested all the way

The story here is good and the narrator is excellent. But the production has added some terrible music overlay that is very distracting and incongruent with the story and tone and sometimes loud enough that it’s hard to hear the narrator. Fortunately, it’s only at the beginning and ending of each chapter. The story is worth this annoyance– an interesting exploration on the topic of soul mates and what to do if you find one...

Fascinated

I was completely fascinated by the topics and although it got heavy at times, I struggled to take breaks and couldn't wait to pick it up again.

lovely story

I loved this story of Brida and how though it took place in a modern time, it felt timeless in its expanse. I loved hearing this story and the journey inside

Insightful

The book sheds light on witchcraft that I have never considered. The story is lacking since the plot is primarily about self discovery.

It all belongs

Read how Brida learns that her ancestral calling and ancient teachings pull together without conflict on her journey to self discovery.

a few insightful moments

o really did enjoy this as a first time read of Coelho ' s books. although the ending was disappointing and expected.

Confusing point of view

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

May be not. I love work of Coelho but i do not agree with his point of view in this book.
Mixed religious messege
One night passion to recognize true love.?????? And after all philosofical aproach that it is ok if you just move on??????

What do you think your next listen will be?

I will stick with business books

Have you listened to any of Linda Emond’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

No film needed

Any additional comments?

No

Brida

This was a simple book, easy to listen to and follow along. It is in the same category as The Alchemist, in terms of content, so if you liked The Alchemist, you'll probably appreciate this book. I would recommend for fans of this author.
