A review by oneshelf
One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel García Márquez

  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
It's one of those books that are difficult to give a star rating because there's too much going on. 

Beautiful prose and masterful manipulation of time/pacing. I loved the magical realism component.
