Man is a FREAK OF NATURE. I don't know about inspiring, but it turned my day to night. I love his writing, it's deeply unsettling stuff.

Favorite book by my favorite author, it got me back into my childhood love of reading after a long hiatus in college. Wonder is my favorite feeling and Murakami really knows how to imbue a story with it. You do have to put up with him being a perverted freak on every other page but itโs worth it in my opinion.

This book has been a very eclectic experience, in the way that when I read this book I feel like I am not only learning about the characters, but I am also learning things about myself. For example, this book shed light on a very harsh reality we live in.
I would say that this book is not the best though. At times I feel like this book can be a little bit to confusing of what the characters are doing. But when it's not confusing it's a very fun read. I would say my favorite part of this book is the exposition between characters.
This book reminded me why books can also just make such great games, and how games and book share so much more similarities than even books and movies. Because subtleties that occur in books can be brought to life much better in a game, rather than a movie. This thought came to me when I was thinking how cinematic of a game this book would be if it was made.
This is my first Murakami novel, and I am thoroughly enjoying it and have no qualms. I feel like his writing style is from like a introspection master, so I will be excited to read his other books.

๐ตSometimes you try your best and everything seems to hit the fan no matter how much you try, so you take that raincheck and take yourself out for a day.

๐ฅชThis is what I call it hahahah made by mums everywhere but the greased up version is sold along stalls in Mumbai. Two regular slices of white bread, buttered, and the middle filling is cream cheese with red onions, coriander/cilantro, tomatoes and some minced chillis. All veggies chopped mini cube size so they blend with the cheese. Toasted crispy.
