A Word for Wednesday

As in: I have been enamored of the book Love in the Time of Cholera by Gabriel Garcia Marquez for years. It is by far my favorite book ever, and I look forward to reading it for probably the 50th time this weekend while I'm at the beach. There's just something about the lifelong devotion of Florentino Ariza that makes me swoon. And the banalities of their love in the end of the novel are so real, yet amazing and endearing. Love it.

What is your favorite book or beach-read?
