Kinda neurotic but pretty entertaining. Super well paced.

Highlighting this victim because he’s the first one so far to call out the Japanese people too. All this time I’ve been thinking like damn if they were a bit more proactive and less passive less people would’ve gotten hurt and he literally just said that. Also the lack of a good response from the police and government is shocking. Really bad situation.

Really did not expect to be pissed off at the victims but I kinda do feel pissed off. I’m guessing this is a culture thing but why are so many of the people so stubborn omg. Also them reaching the hospital screaming “I can’t see” and the person in charge saying “this isn’t and eye clinic” omg kys

Wasn’t planning on reading much but man the Akashi siblings interviews were really gripping. Loved the way Murakami wrote for the sister’s part.

Really interesting reactions from the people who were affected. It’s weird that they all kinda had similar stories about waking up a bit earlier than usual or running a little late. Also the apparent “whatever” attitude most of them have towards Aum is really fascinating. Maybe it’s a culture thing but I would’ve made it my mission to destroy that organization lol.

It’s not very often that I decide to pick up a book, even less a interview/essay book. But recently I had watched a video on YouTube about the Tokyo subway attacks and saw that Murakami was listed as one of the sources for the video. I never finished Kafka on the shore but his prose left an impression in me. So far what I’m seeing from the interviews the book presents have been very gripping so far.

I know I’m probably not the target demo for this book and there will always be parts that I will never truly understand but this book is great I love it it’s funny and sexy and tragic just very surprising

Wasn’t planning on reading this but had nothing better to do and it’s been pretty good. Very nuanced characters and and the way Reid writes about Evelyn makes me think she was a real person which is great

I know I’m supposed to suspend my disbelieve for a time but I literally can not take seriously all the shit that happens to Jude. Are you telling me he went hitchhiking and every single person who gave him a lift ended up being a pedophile???? Like really???

I don’t know if I hate Jude or not but man I don’t know how much longer I can put on with his shenanigans (I completely understand Willems reaction)

After what’s probably the worst and most hard to read part of the book, I’m done with part 4. My opinion on this one has changed a lot and I’m not sure wether the change was positive or negative

So all the progress I quickly made with this book suddenly got stopped for a couple of weeks because of how heavy and borderline traumatized I ended up being after reading these last couple of pages. Reading has been difficult ever since…

Something about the way that Harold writes about revenge and what he’d do to the people who’d wronged him seems so understandable but scary at the same time. I feel conflicted on this. Makes me think a lot.

Ok I understand that Jude’s tale is supposed to be tragic and that awful shit happens to him but man, I think the whole Caleb subplot might have pushed that idea a bit too hard. With each chapter of section there was an slimmer of hope, but not here. Too fucking much imo

So yeah I can understand JB’s fascination of wanting to go back to the good days (something I’m struggling with myself) but he’s also my least favorite of the group I really don’t like him

So “The Postman”. Finished reading like the first chapter of this one and finally got some good insight into who Jude was. Very much needed still a lot of mystery left surrounding his upbringing but either way he makes for such a compelling and tragic character. At points I hate him, at others I wish I could just help him. So brilliant

Willem’s story about his family almost left me crying and and I fear for Jude man. I really hated that line about Willem saying he wishes he could have asked him something different to see if it would change things which yeah makes me believes Jude is gonna kill himself, I hope not.

Ok so Jude has the fucked up leg and backstory no one talks about, Willem is an waiter/actor who lacks ambition , JP is a like a third generation Haitian who’s spoiled by his family (no father figure) and who sucked off an editor for a chance to be featured in a magazine (did not happen), and Malcom (I basically don’t know anything only that he lives with his parents). Liking the squad
