Can appreciate this is artistically &iintellectually a good book but was never properly emotionally invested and burned too many calories trying to remember which Buendia was which. 
Also not a fan of the treatment sexual violence. 
You get its point, though. Nothing really changes, time doesn't exist, everyone is the same, free will isn't a thing, everyone is alone & weird & misunderstood etc
