I started The Alchemist today after receiving it in the mail. I'm loving it so far, and I suspect I will be ordering more Paulo Coelho novels after I finish it.

Give The Devil and Miss Prym a try. I quite liked it when I read it some years ago.

Finished reading Master of the Five Magics by Lyndon Hardy a few days ago. Nice magic system depiction I've seen in a novel, but the book is nothing special. I ain't buying the rest, but it was worth a read.
I had to make a pause in my reading of Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrel. The book is great and marvelously writen, but somehow I lost the impetus. I'm about 180 pages in but I lost the momentum and now I have a shit-ton of other stuff to read. I think it will take some time to finish that one.
Now I'm in the mood for the old days of hunting and exploration in Africa and India. Had a grand-grand-grand-father who made an enourmous fortune in the Belgian Congo in the late 1890s to perhaps about the 1920s or 1930s. So I'm in a mood for the whole "white hunter" stuff of old.
I'm beguining to read this one, which is considered a huge classic:
It's basically about the hunting experiences of Jim Corbett, a guy who's fame comes from hunting maneater tigers and leopards in India in the early part of last century in Northern India, and who made a huge contribution for the establishment of the first Indian national wildlife reserve.

The first 2-300 pages of the book are boring as all fuck, but once the book gets going, it's really, really good.
