devilgrrl | Norwegian Wood (Reply)

So, I just finished reading Norwegian Wood by Haruki Murakami. I liked it a lot more than I thought I was going to, when I first started. The characters were really well-written. I really found myself disliking Naoko. She struck me as very, very selfish. I really felt like she was using Toru and just stringing him along and toying with him. I completely loved Midori. The ending kind of bothered me, though. It seemed too abrupt. I would have liked to know a little more what happened.

I've left this purposefully vague so as not spoil this book for anyone who hasn't read it. If you have read it, please email me and we'll talk about it.

I'm wicked tired. This was definitely one of the shittier Spring Breaks I've had. All I did was work and convalese. Next week-end, I'm going to Vermont (which reminds me- my father called to tell me that either my friend's house or her grandparents' house burned down last night... I should find out which.) I also need to get in touch with my new place of employment and find out exactly when they want me to start. Unless something changes, I am completely done with Country Marketplace on the 15th. God, I can't believe it's almost April- only six more weeks of classes.
