Violeta

This was a good novel by Isabel Allende. I felt it got preachy towards the end though. It's about Violeta and the relationships she's had with men including an unromantic first marriage. The second relationship with a pilot is a mistake as he is an adulteror and well that's not his only problem. The book is all written to her grandson, a priest. His mother's life didn't reach its potential since she caught up with drugs. Like The House of the Spirits, this book spans decades. It took me a short time to read so it was involving. 3/5
