Title: Wish i could give it a big, round zero
Product review: The only men who should be allowed to sing falsetto are the Rev. Al Green and Prince. in that same vein, the only writers who should take fantasy license and weave it into a novel full of Spanish-sounding names are Gabriel García Márquez and Isabel Allende.I just couldn't go through with this novel. The heavy doses of fantasy and mystical imagery were so muddled, so over the top, that the story just did not gel. This was nothing but a huge pastiche of fantasy and magic, juxtaposed with the mundane Goth teenagers and the middle age crisis and pettiness of Elegia, Whit, and everyone else who was not touched by a sixth-sense.
