So today I thought I'd take the liberty of completely gussssshing about a favorite book of mine, and of course, I had to go with "Norwegian Wood," by Haruki Murakami. Now, I know that Murakami is kind of the hip and socially-acceptable author for college students to rave about, but oh my gosh, this book! So emotional, so beautifully (and simply) written. I've reread it twice this summer alone, and I still love it. Still, still, still.
I have the biggest lit-envy about this book -- I want to be able to write something this moving. It's a good summer read too, incredibly enjoyable and engaging. It goes by like nothing. I keep picking up other books this summer, but I only get through a few pages before I go back to this one. Maybe I'm over-hyping it (I probably am). So dont't take my word for it -- go pick up a copy yourself!
In other news, I've been paint-paintin' like a child some more. Girls and pets. Hoorah! Eliot's so good with the music posts -- I'm sorry I've been a little absent, but I'll make up for it, I promise.
