Two Authors


Bookworms

A "Bookworm" is a person who is said to be so passionate about books and reading. I can describe myself as a bookworm since my only hobby which I am so fond of is reading. I can even consider myself a good reader not by the quantity of books I have read but by their quality and impact on me personally.


Paolo Coelho

When I first started reading, I was taken by the striving phenomenon of Paolo Coelho's topics and writings. as a result, I bought  a big number of his books and saved them in my library at home. and of course, whenever we hear the name "Paolo Coelho" we remember his all time bestseller "The Alchemist". Coelho was even nicknamed "The Alchemist" in media and biographies due to the major success this book achieved. A summary of this book is as follows:
Santiago meets an Englishman who wants to learn the secret of alchemy, or turning any metal into gold, from a famous alchemist who lives at an oasis on the way to the pyramids. While traveling, Santiago begins listening to the desert and discovering the Soul of the World.



John Green
Another well-known author of our modern time is John Green whose novels and movies spread dramatically and gained the interest and enthusiasm of a huge number of people from different age groups. His first huge success was after publishing his first best selling novel "The Fault in Our Stars" which touched all its readers' hearts and brought them into tears. The story is narrated by a sixteen-year-old cancer patient Hazel Grace Lancaster, who is forced by her parents to attend a support group in the "Literal Heart of Jesus" where she subsequently meets and falls in love with 17-year old Augustus Waters, an ex-basketball player as well as an amputee.

Till now, these two authors are the only ones whose sets of books are found in my library at home. However, there are different books with different authors which grabbed my attention whenever I entered a library or a book fair and had me buy them and add them to my collection at home to be on the "To Be Read" list later on. Stay tuned for more reviews!
