Thank you for sending this on, BBL! Ever since I read Veronika Decides To Die by Paulo Coelho, I've been wanting to read this one too! Thanks so much for bookrelaying it! So glad I was able to grab it! :)
And thank you for the bookmark, too! Very fitting, since this book fulfills a wish for me!

Wow. I was SO right to read this book. What an absolutely amazing tale. The boy went through so much, only to finish back at the beginning, but what an adventure he had! So much to learn from this book, about faith, and trust, and believing in something.
My favorite quote from the book: "If a person is living out his destiny, he knows everything that he needs to know. There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure."
This book is now heading off to JDT. May she find it as powerful as I have.

Happy to receive this well-travelled, thought-provoking - and, I think, affirming book!
Thanks to all before me!
