Kinda expected, but still shocking. The world is less than it was.

I saw the news when he died. I would probably put 100 Years of Solitude in my top 10 books of all time.
I've been meaning to read Love in the Time of Cholera for a while too - I really need to get a copy of that.

Y'know, I never managed to get into 100 years.

A few people have told me that they didn't get into it, but it really grips me, and even though I know it already it's one of those books I can read over a lot of times.
