I love magical realism. Here are a few that I thought were quite good
Ok it took a minute to get into but was so glad I stuck with it because it was amazing. I loved the way it was told. Great family saga.
The Bullet Swallower: A Novel
One of the first magical realism books I read more than ten years ago. I was entranced. Fast read. Great story of family. Loved it
Like Water for Chocolate book by Laura Esquivel
Very good series. Gloomy and mysterious. He is set on solving a mystery of the books being destroyed. Lots of different perspectives. One I would like to reread since it’s been over ten years since I originally read it
The Shadow of the Wind
I read this for the first time over ten years ago and absolutely loved it. I loved the multiple points of view- given there are a lot to keep track of. I loved the whole feel of the book
NIGHT CIRCUS, THE
I could not have loved a book more. I love a multi generational story.
La casa de los espíritus book by Isabel Allende
I love Murakami. This one was very very good
Kafka on the Shore
Felt very reminiscent of practical magic
Garden Spells: A Novel (Waverly Family)
I love all of Murakami. They are a wild ride and incredibly strange but great. I think this might be my favorite
