Hi Desire, looks like you are a Gabo fan just as me! I loved "Love in the Time of Cholera", thanks so much for reminding me about this book. I think this is one of the greatest love stories of all time.

I am currently reading - Memories of My Melancholy Whores, another one by Garcia Marquez and as always really into it!
