Retrato a Sépia by Isabel Allende

This was a surprise. I love this author with all my heart and I know I will be taken through a very eye opening travels and adventures when I have one of her books with me. However this one was underwhelming, not disappointing just smaller then what I was expecting. The first book was something so exciting, she traveled through seas and far away lands that no one knew much about, she dressed as a man to survive and she did it all while still pretty young. Her granddaughter is much more steady. She is someone so manipulated that it’s almost infuriating to see how some events could produce an arc or even a small development and she simply doesn’t. She has such a dark beginning and she is just known for having a very rich and ambitious grandmother, a very united family that she married into just because it was expected. And she loves photography. I love the relation that photography has with the end of the first book. It was nice to see how the passion of the granddaughter is so...
