Colourless set my standards for books so much higher! i only recently got into reading and before reading it, i had read 2-3 books trying to get into reading but nothing really drew me in. i just thought was one of those people that couldn’t get into reading. But this changed everything. This book kept me on my toes. Every time i turned a page i didn’t want to stop because of how engaging it was. I’m a pretty slow reader so the fact i got through this book in 2 weeks says something.

careful with his motifs and word choice (obviously credit to peter gabriel too because i really enjoyed this translation) it’s just fascinating. i very much recommend if you want a slightly easier introduction to murakami, but i still like his more overtly magical realist, twisted stuff more.
