“I have finally finished it! I have to say that it took me quite a long time to finish it, but here I am; done!

Well, I cannot say how much I enjoyed the read, for I find myself unable to judge my current state of mind;) But what I can say is that the book is deep and thorough in its content; the plot itself, that I constantly found myself in need of a break at a certain point in time! It does make you wonder and ponder certain ideas!

An interesting book in its own way! I say you might want to try it;P”

“I had so many wonderful and memorable moments reading this amazingly touching book! It felt so real, all of it. The plot is exciting and so are the characters. I totally fell in love with Dan in the story, and I just wished so desperately that such a true gentleman could exist in reality. It is just a pure romance that will sweep you off your feet and make you close your eyes and sigh long and deep!

I will definitely read something else bu the same author! I love her already;P”

“Finally, all the pieces have fallen together and the whole thing is now complete and looks magnificently right and acceptable. I think I can now rest and breathe a sigh of relief that Jacob has found his long forgotten happiness. ”

“I have to admit that reading this humongous book took me way longer than I first predicted! It kinda took me forever to finish it, to be frank! Anyways, despite the sense of boredom that gripped me at times throughout the read, I have to admit that the book is worth the trouble and will certainly leave you with more than a nagging thought to ponder! ”

“This is definitely a book that takes you to places you have never thought you could reach merely with your imagination! It is a book written to make you think and look at things from new angles and perspectives. Coelho is proving to be an author whose works you cannot but enjoy reading!

My advice is, don't miss the chance of embarking on yet another exciting journey; made tangible only through Coelho's magical words. ”

“A creepy book in its own unique way!
I have to admit that boredom did get the better of me at some parts, especially those including meticulous details about the art of perfumery. However, the story did pick up speed at later chapters when Grenouille started the killings.

Anyways, the ending left me gawking at the last page for some time!! I had such a strange expression on my face, and still I do not seem to be able to get over the shock of the ending!! Unbelievable and totally unexpected!!

Smartly written, and deals with olfaction quite differently and from a totally unusual angle!!

A new reading experience!!”

“It's always hard to measure your capacity and willingness to forgive those who have hurt you! Yet, love always makes this easier, and it surely is the one and only healing power humanity has ever known! To learn about love & forgiveness, I surely recommend this novel! It has left me with a feeling of content and tranquility that I wouldn't name but "Sheer Inner Peace"! ”

“Well, if you are as much in love with Italy as myself, this novel will make you ache to be there, to feel its warm sun and breeze, to be one with its godly nature and definitely to taste its unbelievably delicious food! If for you Italy is just another country on the map, you will certainly change your mind once you read this heart warming, light and easy to love novel! And watch out for your tasting buds, I assure you they'll go insane with every new dish you get to know within the lines of this book;)”
