    “Top tier book. Would recommend. Probably the greatest work of Latin-Americn literature ever written. This was the first of many books by Marquez and other authors of the same genre that I read, but none come close to this one. The Netflix adaptation is also surprisingly good.”

    “Actually makes you see the awe in your surroundings. Magical Realism can be overdone and cheesy but GGM is the OG. Such vivid character and nature descriptions.”
