  1. Hello, finished reading this book by James Redfield.
    I was recommended from a friend while stoned and decided to give it a shot.
    This was my first book by this author so didn't know what to expect.
    My first thoughts were the story line seemed abit... Off, asif it was written unprofessionally... Almost like a kids book although I'm glad i stayed with it. I grew to quite like it.
    Has anyone else read this? Read anymore of his books? Views/Opinions? :)

     
  2. Well since this was never replied to I will. I never have a problem with simplicity in the way something is written. In The Celestine Prophecy there were still plenty of interesting insights in the energies of all things, a cohesion of the universe, personal destinies, etc. So there's a lot in the book that sparks imagination. Its written in almost the same canon as The Alchemist. In both cases very simply put words still are enough to build a vivid picture. I liked the book a lot.
     
  3. Did you read the rest of them. Many many more books in the series.

    I enjoyed it as well. A coworker gave it to me to read a couple of years ago.
     
    I read the next book, but it lost my interest.

  6. imo the celestine prophecy was 10/10 one of my all time fav books.

    The sequel which if I recall correctly is called the tenth insight 1/10 to me it seemed to be trying to hard!!

    You might like " the alchemist" by paulo coelho. I did!
