I love this book! It really makes you believe you're in another world. I absolutely adore Allende's writing style.

DNF at 94 pages - not enthralling and I think I’ve discovered that Allende’s writing is not for me.

I read this when I was 11 and remember enjoying it, it stuck with me. Probably partially because I was fascinated by the Amazon rainforest and wanted to read a book that was set there.

Read it in the original Spanish to improve my language. Fun, well written and a nice environmental theme to it!

Para mí son 4 estrellas raspando porque no soy tan fan de las historias basadas en la jungla, pero es que igual la narración y la fantasía que Isabel Allende tiene en este libro me cautivó por completo, solo por eso.
Una quote favorita: ”Comprendió que la felicidad consiste en alcanzar aquello que hemos esperado por mucho tiempo."
