A review by emileeandherbooks
Love in the Time of Cholera by Gabriel García Márquez

0.75

“Love”? More like feverish obsession.

“Love”? More like constant infidelity. 

“Love”? More like sexual assault ( a doctor to his patient! And she’s okay with it!* ) 

“Love”? More like pedophilia. 

“Love”? More like stalking. 

This book was crap. Marquez is a talented writer but the story was gross, annoying and pointless. So pointless. I couldn’t care less about every single character. 

It’s completely sexist and so OBVIOUSLY written by a sex-obsessed man. He practically has his female characters begging for sex. *And when they’re assaulted, they’re okay with it! And even a 14 year-old girl is happy to have a 70 year-old man groom her and…you know the rest. 

Just gross. So so gross.
