  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.0

I really enjoyed the writing style and the story itself but Murakami tends to portray women very oddly, or even altogether poorly, in his works. This holds true with Norwegian Wood. If you can move beyond that and you enjoy moody literary fiction, you'll enjoy this.
