I've read this and 1Q84, and both had similar themes so I was not too impressed by this one. I did enjoy the lack of pedophilia though.

predictable murakami if that’s your thing. What it has 
  • sad young man who get way to hung up on old friendships
  • women that are nothing more than a pair of boobs 
  • Trains
What it lacks
  • Any form of character development 
I didn’t hate it it’s just more or less exactly what I expect every Murakami book to be

A lot of unanswered questions.

I liked the introspective elements a lot, quite frankly they were the most relatable parts, even if at times the main character can be wayyyy too morose. There are a few triggering subject matters, that I typically avoid in books and media, but other than that I don't know what to make of the book tbh. It was... I don't know. Not an immediate like or dislike, it just very much so exists.
