If I could give this anything more than five stars I would! The final extract about death will forever hold a special place in my heart that no other part of the book could ever hold. Once again I have been enchanted by Isabel Allende's storytelling and her ability to thrust me in the long and fulfilling life of Violeta. From her birth to her death Violeta lived an adventurous life that I can only hope to mildly relate to if I get to the tender age of 100.
