At first I didn't really care about any of the characters, especially Tsukuru Tazaki, because I was getting pretty tired of the classic Murakami protagonist (an emotionless 30 year old man who seems to have a taste for teenage girls). However, once the plot got going, I ended up wanting to find out more and naturally got drawn into the story. It ended up being pretty emotional, and I really liked the whole premise of this group of friends that got broken apart. Overall, not my least favorite Murakami book, but it's pretty low on the list.
