I've read most of his stuff and liked everything I've read - with the exception of One Hundred Years of Solitude. I never did finish that book because I just couldn't get "involved" with any of the characters. I -do- enjoy the magic realism, the idea that a young man's blood could poor out the door and travel down the streets through the town to his mothers house to alert her of his death. That's what I like about his books.

(Remember, UofMean - I read everything I can get my hands on.)
