Safety In Numbers

To make a shameful admission of my own, I have to admit that Roy made it considerably further through 100 Years of Solitude (“could have done with less magic and more realism”) than I have managed in multiple attempts. And to ratchet the shame even further, despite female characters that fail to achieve two-dimensionality and its dull subplots, I kind of liked The Information, although admittedly it’s been a while.

Put this way, I really don’t like what this says about my underlying tastes in fiction, but there you go.
