I tried reading Kafka On The Shore by Murakami but found it very difficult to concentrate on. I'm going to give it another go this morning.

I really enjoy his style of writing. A lot of detail and emotions described in depth. Not just words after another, but subjects that make you think and question you own beliefs.

I am reading 'A Man Called Ove' at the moment. It is wonderful and I highly recommend it. Ove wants to be at peace with his beloved wife who died but things keep getting in the way of him killing himself. It really is a fabulous book. Well worth a read.

I am from China.

I can not read, because the books are full of errors.

Once you get into Kafka on the Shore it is a really great book.

Solo by William Boyd

His James Bond book. Very good, very William Boyd and an interesting angle to Bond suggesting some PTSD.
