The Alchemist!

So, I think this is the first time I'm writing in about an audiobook not our own, but I finished listening to The Alchemist (Paulo Coelho), and it was an absolutely amazing listen! The kind you miss your subway stop for! Jeremy Irons reads, and his voice is just gorgeous, and the book is inspirational in a lot of ways and plain good storytelling in a lot of other ways. Loved it, and would recommend it for anyone- and I think it's especially a good story for family car rides or for young people, so a great one to pick up for summer listening!

I thought I'd check in to see what books you all are recommending lately. As I am planning a family trip in July, I was pleased to read your opinion of The Alchemist. Thanks for the tip.
