I have never hated a novel more than this one. I love 100 Years of Solitude but was so disappointed with this book. It's supposed to be a romance, but there's nothing romantic about it. Obsession is not love, and that's what's going on here. Most of the characters are too irredeemable to even care about. I'm just glad I'm finished with this book.
