azynah 's review for:

Chronicle of a Death Foretold by Gabriel García Márquez
3.75
dark mysterious medium-paced

i enjoyed the investigative narration of events through the statements from witnesses. this book highlighted the paralysis of the bystander effect and how even if you know something bad is approaching, you sometimes get so lost in your own life that you don’t do anything. 

it was a little confusing keeping track of all the names, but i enjoyed how it was retold in order. 

ggm is fantastic at painting a picture, i would re-read this again just to relive the scenery. overall an enjoyable read.
