dreamingpages's review

I really tried to like this, but when I found myself dreading to read it, I knew it was time to DNF.

A pointlessly meandering novel rife with pedophilia, grooming, and bizarre female psychosis. Horrible. 0/5

This is my first book by Marquez and it will definitely not be the last. There were a lot of great themes and funny parts in this book that I don’t really even know what I should say about it. 

I see why it is a classic and recommend everyone reads it at least once to know what’s it all about.

Still a good read tho, just not a pleasant one.
