miamiapc 's review for:

Kafka on the Shore by Haruki Murakami
2.5
dark mysterious reflective medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

This book had green mythology vibes but in a bad incest no real plot way. I guess this is the point but it just felt the storyline happened to the characters but wasn’t really related to them? It could have been any random character. I really only enjoyed Nakatas parts of the story and even then it was still not very plot driven. And all the
incest and adults having sex with a minor
was so weird and felt unnecessary. Although the whole book kind of felt unnecessary.
