Haruki Murukami 1Q84

I must say that this book will really capture your attention.

 Murukami has his way of writing that will make you want to turn page after page, not realizing that it is already early in the morning. I have been reading this for a long time now because I've been busy with school and with my internship so I haven't finished the book yet. I usually just read now before going to bed unlike before when I read all day long, getting lost in one book after the other.

This book to me is a bit odd because of how it's written. The author has a different way of writing unlike the books I've read which were a lot, cause I used to read a lot. I'm not going to write anymore about this particular book because I might spoil it so, I'm just going to write my thoughts about the author.

 Murukami is very descriptive, you can actually imagine the place in your head and feel as if you're really there with the character. I don't know if the feeling is mutual with the other readers of Murukami, it still differs with each person's capacity to imagine but in general I think he really gets into people's minds.

A friend of mine (Jan Ricasio) read several pages of the book because I told her about how incredibly weird the plot is...at least...to the extent of where I am now in the book, and she got curious. She said the same thing...that Japanese writers really are a bit odd on how they make their plots. She mentioned this Japanese author whose books revolve around suicidal acts. I forgot his/her name but I'm a bit alarmed of how these people perceive the world. hahaha!

I'm going to bed now, will get a dose of Murukami again. What book should I read next??

 Goodnight!
