One Hundred Years of Solitude is just awful beyond description. I will never get those hours back. That said, I’m not surprised it made their list. Madame Bovary over Brothers Karamazov? I guess there were already too many Russians. The Brontes got robbed.

I actually appreciated One Hundred Years of Solitude. I was going to say “enjoyed”, but it wasn’t really enjoyable as it was interesting, memorable, whatever.

I love The Brothers Karamozov.

My 13 y/o son and I read it together.

He thought some parts of the story were hilarious.
