Along with Hemingway and Hunter S. Thompson. She had an unhealthy attraction to suicidal writers. I want Annie's magic library as well! :) I hope you enjoy One Hundred Years of Solitude! I'm a big fan of Marquez, and if you find 100 Years is too magical realist for your tastes, try Love in the Time of Cholera. His amazing storytelling is still there, but without as much craziness.
