I only read 1Q84 by him and I loved that book.

omg, same! I have a few other Murakami books I've been meaning to read, but the only one I went through was 1Q84, and it's still something I think about. I was just so engaged with it, and wish I could wipe it from my memory to read it again. I don't know why I haven't gotten to any of his other books yet. I guess I'm not sure which one to dive into.

It's weird, but it's a Murakami novel, so of course it's weird

I might read this non fiction book he wrote for 2026, the book is about Tokyo Sarin Subway Terrorist Attack which was done by a cult

Never read Moby Dick before, so I decided to get through it cover to cover over the course of a day and night yesterday. Excellent read, easy to see why it's universally accorded a place among the pantheon of great American novels. I was feeling genuinely sad for Ahab near the end when he remonstrates against the pull of Fate.

Damn, Melville in one day. Grats.

Go for Ulysses next, I hear its an easy breezy read. Maybe War and Peace as well

Yeah, I'll get right on that ...

This was fine. Just not a big Vonnegut guy. But they're all short and breezy and passably entertaining

First time I read satire and... it was amazing. Insane story, quite funny at times. Loved it.
