replaying brilliant corners by thelonious monk when reading the last 100 pages of this is the way to go.
i purposefully didn't keep a family tree in hand while reading this book, and i think it added positively to the experience. i feel as if you're meant to confuse the aurelianos and josés. how time is cyclical and memories are easily vanished. 
the last few pages were frenetic and captivating. i do feel as if some parts of the narrative dragged. most of the subject matter is pretty disturbing.
i also think reading this in spanish was incredible. the language used…

Just not the right time, plus so much incest and pedophilia. Is this what makes a book Nobel Prize winner?  It has to get better. There must be a redemption, but I find it such a slog right now that I’m not interested in finding the redemption. Also, I have to make an ongoing chart since everyone has the same name 😝.

This book is an insanely beautiful masterpiece - just taking off one star for the torment of reading about all that pedophilia and incest.

No absolutely not. I cannot read about literal children who's bodies are sold and who are married when they literally don't know how to clean themselves. Where's the brain bleach? DNF'd
