book review and a new baby
The Devil and Miss Prym is a book by my favorite author.. Paulo Coelho
this is a very inspiring book. a rich one. especially if you are a faithful or religious person, you'll learn a lot from this.
the book mainly focuses on temptation. if the people of a small village will commit a crime for the future (of the village). as with other paulo coelho books, there are a lot of profound messages and words. the story is actually really simple but the learnings are really great. you get to think on how is evel and goodness is here on earth. the task there is a hard one, it's murder, i'm sure a lot of people would not do that. but still, you would learn a lot from the simple conversations. you would get to reflect on how temptations attack you, and how you respond.
if you've read other Coelho books, i'm sure you'll love this one. for me, this is his best book so far.

I'm not very religious, but I always enjoy getting other points of view. I often read bits of Christian literature because I think understanding is always better than fear or hatred.
Maybe I'll check this out too! Thanks!
Haven't read this one. When I find time, I'll do. :)
I will try to read this one since now I am enjoying The Devil Wears Prada and The Zahir

I love Paulo Coelho,too.

I see your long hiatus was not quite so long.
I have never heard of the author or the book, but, based on your personal recommendation, I requested a copy from the library.
I read the book last night. I liked it a lot. It was nice to read something well written and thoughtful.
Thanks for your recommendation.
