5 out of 5 stars El Amor en los Tiempos del Colera   November 6, 2008
Even better than the movie. It has some strong vocabulary that begins in the middle of the book. I bought it for high school students, only mature ones should read it.

4 out of 5 stars Romance recomendable   May 27, 2008
Hace mucho que no leia Gabriel Garcia Marquez, la ultima vez fue en el colegio 100 anos de soledad y fue tedioso, hoy me reconcilie con Garcia Marquez, sus descripciones son tal reales que hasta los aromas se hacen realidad, realmente nos damos cuenta de la calidad del escritor. UNa novela romantica rapida de leer que te cautiva desde las primeras paginas...totalmente recomendable


4 out of 5 stars El amor en los tiempos del colera by Gabriel Garcia Marquez   May 9, 2008
Very enjoyable read due to the language, his spanish is very rich and involves you very easily, it's delightful. The plot is ok, with an end somewhat dissapointing.
However, I am in a book club and all my friends read it in english. All of them disliked it. I have read some of it in english and it is not the same, the words are very similar but the diction is not entirely right so it makes it full of long, convoluted phrases. A pity.
