"This was my first exposure to Haruki Murakami’s writing. The story was eerie and very strange. I liked it a lot actually 🤷♀️"

"In all of my moving around, this book makes my brain feel good. Okay, a better description... A beautiful dark bizarre children's book. I find it personally to be a book I pick up for a light read when I my creativity is lacking. I also find it to be my first thought when introducing murakami to people who don't have the luxury (time) to read 600 pages of The Wind-up bird chronicle which is my first read. #slowreadersclub #adhdbookclub"
