I need to come back to the real world (aka stop being asocial)
#txt#Finished Norwegian Wood and did not like it#But the problem is everyone else who didn't like it and wrote a review are just people who didn't understand the book#I understood it just fine. I just didn't LIKE it.#I also think people who LOVE that book don't actually understand it though...#every positive review was like “Did we read the same book??????” bc it was all like. Talking about how it's an epic cute romance coming-of-#-age novel. And it is those things but ONLY in terms of marketing. Not in any actual meaningful capacity.#Number of ppl who didn't actually understand what Murakami was trying to say is astonishingly high.#I understood it but I just didn't like how it was written and I have some other nitpicks#Like Murakami thinking a bisexual woman is the scariest thing ever!!!!!!!!#Like I understand the main character is horrible & an unreliable narrator but I guess mostly I didn't like that specifically the bisexual#woman was like an evil child predator rapist. I thought that sure sucked#and like as I said I had some other nitpicks.#But everyone going “How does the author expect this main character to be likable!!!” (he doesn't that's the point)#or “Awe this book is so cute & romantic I love it” (no it isn't!!!!) are like all so bad at reading & thinking about what they read!!!!!
