100 years of solitude
The constant repetition of the sentence "as he stood in front of the firing squad" got old the third time around
and it made me say "we got the picture already". It was overall very boring and very disturbing, the main focus
seemed to be the characters having their fantasies as well as a lot of other unwanted mush, it's not written
poorly, but it seems more like someones fanfiction rather than a story, in the first few chapters it focuses way
too much on the village of macondo and the gypsies, the main issue of the story doesn't even come till later as it
spends too much time introducing the characters and describing the changes in the village. The firing squad takes
a long time to appear in the story because of this extra mush in the first few chapters.
it's like .. "we don't need to hear more about rebeca eating earth, you told us that already"
and" great another page dedicated to Aureliano and his fantasy"
lastly "another few pages dedicated to Armaranta being angry yay!"
see what I mean? the first chapters just repeat themselves over and over about things the reader already knows about.
