recommended for: history buffs, romantics
This novel interested me in that it had a bit of a complicated plot that took place over three continents, several decades, and introduced me to a very large extended family (tree provided on the end papers). I thought Allende did a wonderful job describing the 19th century details of rough and rude San Franscisco and the genteel wealthy villas of Chile and Europe.
It wasn't "can't put down," but by the end, I was sad to put it down, that I had really met the characters and cared about what happened to them.
