The House of the Spirits by Isabel Allende

3.0

---

I didn't have a strong opinion about this book one way or the other. Parts of it were interesting, parts of it dragged on. I absolutely hated the character that brought the 3 women's stories together - Esteban. He was such an unlikeable character, and unfortunately, he was there are every turn. It picks up towards the end, with perhaps too quick of a conclusion.
