He is an expert, the doyen in this genre. Mortals like me can't write a review for such masterpieces.<br />Let my words cease. Grab a copy and devour it NOW!<br /><br />As a matter of fact, I read its pdf! That was quite an excruciating task for someone who can't stand e-books. But, it was Garcia's spell that kept me enchanted for two whole days!<br />I can comfortably say that those were the 48 hours of sheer bliss...<br />P.S. Pelt stones at me if the climax does not enthrall you to a maddening degree..

I have read Love in the Time of Cholera, Chronicle of a Death Foretold, Leaf Storm and No One Writes to the Colonel. Marquez is an amazing writer.

This is obviously a great example of that. Thank you so much for taking part in the hop!<br /><br />My best<br />TerriTerri Giuliano Longhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02357890487129153968noreply@blogger.com
