I could never get to finish this book this year but I hope that I can next academic year.

This book got quite repetitive. It was quite a disappointment after reading the first two books in the novel.

This book wasn't quite interesting in the beginning, and it moved at a relatively slow-pace. Nevertheless, the ending of the book is reflective and is touching. Garcia Marquez also mentions human characteristics in his novel, which represent the turn in Bolivar's life.

Informative as always.. Not too interesting.

The book has actually started to get a bit interesting and is sad when it mentions bolivars misery

The book is getting better as I read more of it. The plot is interesting and the writing is captivating.

I really got a bit tired of this book. It was a disappointment compared to the other books in the series. I may or may not finish this book.

I have recently started to read this book. So far I really like it and I hope to get to read it more.

Lots of facts, gives information, but it can really be boring at times. Don't recommend it, unless you're using it as a source for a degree.

Garcia Marquez has a way with words, and sometimes its not always good. The book provides some facts, but the excess detail sort of ruins it. I recommend it only if you are into slow-paced novels with large amounts of detail.

This book is definitely nothing like the previous books in the series. Even though it is relatively well written, and is decent its really a bummer to read it after reading the previous books in the series. The story has much less detail, and things don't seem to flow too much. The book is still average, and readable.

Beginning of book. Not too interesting yet, nonetheless there is good writing.

I loved it. Really suspenseful, and provoked a lot of thought.

I have gotten to page 83 of the novel. Even though I am unable to fully imagine the characters in real-life, I think the story is quite interesting, and I have realized that its short chapters have meaningful parts to them.

I'm now done with my novel. I really enjoyed it and I will read the other books in the series. I highly recommend this book to people who like fast paced novels.

This book is quite informative. I'm having trouble enjoying it since there is no story to it. It is mainly facts written down in paragraphs.

I think, The story in the novel, is interesting but the way that the author writes it makes it a bit boring. I have heard it's a good book, thus I will finish it.

I have finished my novel (page 454). In my last report I mentioned some things about the novel. I feel there was a really good conclusion to the story and i hope to start on the next book in the series soon.

I am currently on Chapter 98 of the Book. I have a little bit to go. The story is really, really good. The novel is at its climax, and there are many different things going on, yet, they are very organized and well written. They also form a flow between each other, and at this point, they have all started to effect each other. I hope to finish this novel tonight. Also, my copy of the novel only has 454 pages.

I have currently gotten to Chapter 41 of the novel. I find the novel extremely interesting. The author has a good word choice and I think this book is a little challenge for me. The writing is descriptive, and Dan Brown keeps the story moving at a fast pace. I especially like this type of book and I can't wait to get farther into the story.
