Love in the Time of Cholera - Gabriel Garcia Marquez

Love in the Time of Cholera by Gabriel Garcia Marquez

This was January's book club and while I had all intentions of finishing it in time for the meeting, I didn't ... Whoops! But I did finish it while on airplanes across the world and back. And what did I think? Eh.

a) how could this possible be a good movie? It spans way too many years and the main male character is supposed to be kind of ugly -- I'm sure Hollywood would cast some handsome man in the role.

b) the two main characters were positively hateful. He was creepy and she was frigid.

c) beautifully written but it was a little tedious to get through. There were a LOT of words!

d) strangely, I really liked the ending. So I'm glad I didn't put it down.

Eh. 2.5 starts. Maybe 3.
