Reviews

This book is similar to _House of the Spirits_, especially in the plot twists and archetypical characters. It seems like the background is changed, but the story lines are similar. I think that Allende is a fairly interesting author because she uses unique details, but the framework is similar. This is a good book for comfort reading rather than reaching out for something new.
