Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World by Haruki Murakami


 I don't mind lending out books, especially since I'm unlikely to re-read any one specific book in my collection. That being said... if the book is never returned then for some reason I'll definitely want to re-read that book at some point. So that explains why of all the Murakami books to re-read I ended up choosing Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World. So I enjoyed it before and enjoyed it again, but maybe this time I found the last act a bit of let down dramatically speaking. It ends on a very pensive and introspective note, which is fine, but the first 2/3rds book aren't really like that at all. Still, A-.
