A review by whales9001
One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel García Márquez

Did not finish book. Stopped at 22%.
Started reading because I have heard great things about it. The first hundred pages are riddled with incest and pedophilia and every time I though it may be over it just kept going. I then realized that life is short and I don't have to continue reading books I just frankly am not enjoying.

That being said the magical realism I did encounter was very well written. Who knows maybe I'll come back some day in the future but I kind of doubt it.
