1Q84

Sorry for not being here lately, I don't know if you had noticed but I had been trying to write at least one post every day. Of course, that hasn't been possible... Some of the reasons of my absence are that I have been reading the book 1Q84 by Haruki Murakami. But this is not easy task seeing that the book has more than nine hundred pages... but at least is not boring! Far from it, it's absolutely interesting, but because I'm only human I haven't been able to finish it yet...

But I think that is better this way! Because normally I would read some nice book that makes me feel good but barely lasts a day, of course they leave a nice taste but I only think of them around one week if not one or two days..
But this one it's something different! I think I will remember this book for a good part of my life!! I know that I have read many books by Haruki Murakami before, but they haven't marked me the way this book is doing. Of course I remember some bizarre events from those books, or I remember some useful bit of trivia that seemed interesting at the moment, or maybe even music, but the stories haven't left me hanging in the edge of my chair while I'm reading. Right now I'm highly anticipating what will happen next. But I blame everything on the fact that I almost never take time to think and analyze about what is happening in the books. Although I realize this may be the fault of all the brainless, happy-go-lucky books that I'm reading lately. But it's just that lately many things have been shit in my life so at least I want to feel good in my fantasy world where everything turns out ok....

This is one of those "brainless" things that has been making me feel good lately.
