I did not like the writing style of this one, but it was interesting to notice how Allende have evolved her writing in the sequential books.
If it was not for the writing style I would give 5 stars. The story is great, gives a good perspective of what happened to Chile before and during the first years of dictatorship. Some of those parts brought me to tears with feelings of hopelessness.
