triceroar 's review for:

Memories of My Melancholy Whores by Gabriel García Márquez
2.0

This is a bit of a departure from the books I usually read. It filled a challenge to read a book by a South American author.

Overall, I thought this book was rather boring. No doubt it has some deep meaning to people who are looking for that, but I was looking for a good story and this book doesn't have much of one. It was kind of like listening to a grandfather tell a story about the good days when his life wasn't really that interesting. Nothing really seemed to happen.
