A review by deathbyspreadsheet
1Q84 by Haruki Murakami
3.0
LIKES
- Real-world fantasy storyline
- Interesting characters
DISLIKES
- Constant, needless repetition (repeat this as 2nd and 3rd dislikes for full effect)
- Sluggish plot
- And maybe it's just me, but plot holes. Things that are seemingly important are dropped unresolved. Tenuous, potential connections are never investigated
Honestly, I am extremely disappointed in this book. As a Murakami fan, this was one of the first books that I've ever pre-ordered. I was looking forward to it that much! Sadly, this book would have been much more solid if it had been edited to half its size.
