I didn't realize this book took me almost a month to read. Perhaps that's just because I felt the month of December just sweep over me without me realizing it... Either way, the days in which I chose to read the book went relatively successfully. Easy to get into and easy to get out. How is it that Murakami can just throw a load of meta jargon into his stories and get away with it? How can anybody make any sort of connection to it? I liked this book, don't get me wrong but so much of it frustrated me. I found it underwhelming and unexciting and packed full of neurological language that just escaped me. The narrative itself was consistent, solid even. No exceptionally magnificent sentences or particularly profound moments but it was neat. Nice and neat and simple with complicated concepts. Now that's an interesting juxtaposition! This book was full of it, which I find fascinating. Perhaps that was the purpose, I don't know. I'd like to admit that I didn't care for any of the characters. I hated the weird twangy accent of the grandfather who "ho-ho-hoed" like Santa and the stoic, impersonal voice of the main man and I usually never really count my dislike for a character as a particular fault of a book but in this one I did. I was simply unhappy because as I mentioned in an update earlier, they all seem to be from the same general puddle of characters. It all feels so not gratifying. We eventually discover the reasoning behind the main characters uniqueness, we discover his impending demise and then just like that it happens and I'm unsatisfied; the end of the world is just the end and that's it. As a result, this book was OK. A respectful 3.5 rating. The good stars for the writing and the overall story but the bad stars for the lack of connection to the reader and boring, prosaic characters.
