One Hundred Years of Solitude

So today I was reading about One Hundred Years of Solitude (my way of cheating to see if I'll like the book- I know, lame)

Anyways, it seemed a bit much for my feeble little brain, at least for the time being. As it 'crosses genres, combining elements of history, magical realism, and pure fiction.' Yikes. Also one peek at the family tree and I was like, whoa. It was quite 'A Suitable Boy'esque.

Right now my mind is getting completely bent by Neuromancer. Which may be the greatest sci-fi novel ever. It's good, but I must admit there are times when I have no clue what's going. Typically I find that frustrating, but I've managed to work my way through it. As for 100 Years, well maybe I'll start it when I go to New York next month.
