Love in the Time of Cholera might have been an Oprah's Book Club pick and have garnered a ton of good reviews. Its author, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, might have been a winner of the Nobel Prize. The book still irritated me. Irritated? Yes! It was just interesting enough, in spots, not to put it down. And I disliked the whiney, overly romantic and wimpy characters. I'd have been happier with a lot more cholera and a lot less love.
