The style of writing in this book is very different than most books. Short sentences, dry humor. Its an interesting read, everyone will be able to relate to the autistic character..he questions everything and wonders about everything every human being thinks about in his mind but never says outloud and i guess after reading it, youre relieved that ur not alone. It was definetly a good read.

I read this book about a year ago. I dont remember details about it but its like a drug and theres a certain afterglow u get afterwards that lasts forever, a peace, a clarity, a better understanding of life and what matters. This is truly a life changing book. I dont think it should be named the best novel by Paulo Coehlo, dont be fooled because the rest of his novels are just as good if not better.

There was so much hype about the movie so i was expecting something out of this world. I must admit i havent read the book but as a movie, it wasnt all that and the childrens acting was horrible. As a kids movie i guess it was alright but generally not my thing.
