.... this was so weird.
Since starting I've discovered that it's not recommended to be your first venture into Murakami, and I can understand why.
This book was just insane.
And yet, I could not put it down.
There was a lot of repetition, and a lot of description that probably wasn't necessary, but it was beautifully written.
From about 300 pages in, I was hooked.
