One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel García Márquez

3.0

“El secreto de una buena vejez no es mas que un pacto honrado con la soledad.”

i've lost count of how many times i've read this during high school. for some reason, this book had a hold on me that i couldn't explain and kept reading it over and over, along with [b:The House of the Spirits|9328|The House of the Spirits|Isabel Allende|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1621672028l/9328._SY75_.jpg|3374404].
thinking about it now, i feel like i was so attached to this book because everything in it -every detail, every character, every line-, seemed to have its rightful place and was presented so candidly and matter-of-factly, it put my chaotic and hormonal teenager's mind at ease.
