it is a very nice and at the same time very sad.
Certainly we can find all kind of people that can do anything for their great loves. In this case Pedro did something crazy, wich is to get married with the oldest sister just to be close to tita.
Becareful about your mother's decitions.
As you said it must be a nice book because of the love story. I love this kind of stories and I also we´ll read. I am pretty sure that I will like the story and now i recommend you to think twice before you fall in love because once you are you could live happy or be suffering. Take your own decitions when you think you are ready.
