Was it worth it for the last paragraph?
Short answer: nah.
Long answer: there are better books that provide a swerve at the end. You don't have to read this one for it.

Made it 150 pages in. I get that this book is a multi generational saga, but why does every character HAVE to have the same name. Above all, why is there so much incest?! I kept waiting for this to be revolutionary for me but I don’t want to waste my time any more.  
I also don’t love magical realism
