I just picked up Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage by Murakami after work today! It's been on my to-read list for a while now.

I like the sound of the Marie Kondo one! Sounds fun! :D

Please report back after you read. I've read it, and I had really mixed feelings. Interested to get another take on it. I'm a huge Murakami fanboy, and I couldn't really get behind it.

I really love Murakami for the most part.

I had a bit of a hard time with 1Q84 (the ending really annoyed me I guess, too much left unresolved) and that sort of put me off him for a while, but I wanted to give him another go! I'd heard mixed reviews about this one, but I hear mixed reviews about most things I pick up to read.

I'll let you know what I think!
