Would give it 0!
Honestly, there was absolutely nothing that I liked in this book. I have no idea why it is referred as a love story. For me, it seems more of a creepy obsession of a pervert!
Florentino is a selfish, pervert, creepy and disgusting character.
Fermina is so annoying. She's never happy with anything.
The only person that was somehow agreeable was Dr Urbino, until he started to be a cheater as well.
No one in this book could keep their pants on! 
Yuck, yucky book, no morals, no substance, no lessons.
Just a lame story of a senseless obsession.
