"One Hundred Years of Solitude" has been on my re-read list for years. I decided re-reading now would be a perfect way to memorialize Gabo Márquez.

I remember being totally fascinated with "One Hundred Years" in my 20s and, am sure I would have given it five stars then if Goodreads has existed.

Unfortunately, for me, that mystical, fantastical, magical realism that I read then did not age with me. That said, I have believe it is me and where I am in life, and not the writing. The writing did not change, the story did not change, only I changed.

Maybe I will try it again in another 30 years to see if I've circled back around.
