Book wasn't for me, I like the writing style so I'll definitely be picking up other Murakami books, but this one just wasn't for me personally

I really enjoyed the writing of this book (and translation) but I just couldn’t get into the story. While reading it I was looking forward to what would happen but I just was never satisfied and was a bit bummed.
