I tried and failed finishing 1Q84. The mixture of dystopia, religious extremists, assasins and many of the ideas presented were great. Yet, the repetitive dislike of one's breast size was tedious and so was the sex from both protagonists.

This book was so tedious. Excessively long for very little payoff. I did not feel emotionally invested in the main characters as I have in previous Murakami works.

Absolutely stunning read. This book will make you look at your everyday surrounding twice with complete different perspectives.

Tengo un especial amor por su obra, independiente de la crítica. Gracias por hacerme perderme en tu surrealismo, murakami.
