De Profeet by Kahlil Gibran, Aleid C. Swierenga
4.0

This book is written beautifully. There are a TON of metaphors and sometimes I feel like the use of words was not natural. You can almost feel that the writer had to look up words he wanted to use, to make them “fit”.
There is also a lot of wisdom in there. I think it takes multiple reads to understand what’s all in there.
So for now, I give 4 stars.
