Brida by Paulo Coelho | Goodreads

By taking risks’ she said to Brida. ‘ By risking failure, disappointment, disillusion, but never ceasing in your search for Love. As long as you keep looking, you will triumph in the end.” But how will I know who my Soulmate is?” Brida felt that this was one of the most important questions she had ever asked in her life. Bottom line - read it only to laugh at its absurdity. For those misguided critters who claim that this is "Philosophy" or "Romance"... *shakes head out of pity*... it is NOT. Sorry, buddy. You ought to be embarrassed to like such things, let alone consider them profound or meaningful. This is vague, meandering, meaningless claptrap, not an insightful, intentionally slow paced, thought-provoking story. Brida is yet another enlightenment quest story from Coelho. I enjoyed it for a while, but well before reaching the end, I found that I was getting bored. It seemed like I was reading Casteneda after he had scarfed down a peyote button laced with Robert Heinlein. Despite the mysterious base of the subject matter, a young woman seeking to learn about magic and gain insight into her special “Gift”, there is too much bright and cheery obviousness here. I recall once reading a book about auras in which the author assumed that after a few exercises the reader would be able to view human auras as easily as one might see the color of a hat worn by someone you pass in the street. There is that sort of presumption here, a presumption of a magic realm, a presumption of rituals that allow people access to that realm. Yes, it is a novel, but I expect that that is a politic way of marketing what Coelho believes to be more of a self-help book. It broke my heart into a jillion pieces. I feel like crying. Love is when you'll be able to understand that at some point, you were never meant to be together. That, sometimes, even if you're just in time, it isn't still sufficient. It isn'r selfish. It allows you to grow and to go in search of your path, in search of your soul. It does not hinder you to become the person you wanted to be. It doesn't require you to give up all the important things you have just because...The Magus is a very important and electrifying figure in this novel. What purpose does he serve? How would you describe him? What about his physical appearance? Not even close. It was some shit about Brida trying to clear her wardrobe (cause of some vibration bullshit)... and then saying "never mind". And for those who read books solely to enjoy "sex scenes", don't bother. There's some vague and meandering mention of someone sleeping with someone in the middle of a rainbow in a forest filled with unicorns and bubbles... nobody knows why. Even the characters don't - they freely admit it. Also, Brida finds some Wicca woman sexy... in a vague, meandering way, of course. Ooooh. Scandalous. Guaranteed to make soccer moms squeal. (Take that, Fifty Shades!)

Everyone has their own way.”My first exposure to Coelho was many years ago. I read The Alchemist at a time in my life when I was experiencing some major changes and I found very real comfort and guidance there. I enjoyed several more of his novels but after a time there seemed to be a repetitiveness to them that left me unsatisfied.
