"You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one"

Welcome to the world of a dreamer...a person who is heavily influenced by music, a person who loves looking at things with a simplistic outlook. I am a big fan of The Beatles.

About Me

I am a dreamer, procrastinator, last-minute worker. Music is my passion--I am an obsessive music collector. Often I collect gigabytes of music only with the hope to listen to'em "someday". I like writing, reading, and I also cherish to learn to play the guitar someday...

Review of "Hippie" by Paulo Coelho

HippieHippie by Paulo Coelho
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Took me almost 6 months to finish reading this book as I have been reading other books in between. It started off slow, and did not pick up a considerable amount of pace until reaching the second half of the book.

However, things got really interesting at that point, and I loved reading about Paulo's autobiographical account of travelling through Amsterdam, Istanbul and some other European cities.

Hippie is unlike any other Coelho book. Here, there is less preaching and or life advice--which can be good or bad, depending on the reader's expectations. I liked the change in narrative, and honestly speaking, the last few books I read were a bit repetitive.

Would have given an additional star if the introductory chapters were cut a bit short.
