To Say Nothing of the Dog: Or How We Found the Bishop's Bird Stump at Last by Connie Willis

brendalou, January 10, 2013

A great time-travel novel with a mystery at its core, fast paced and funny with memorable characters. Until I read To Say Nothing of the Dog: Or How We Found the Bishop's Bird Stump at Last, I didn't even know what a bird stump was.

1Q84 by Haruki Murakami

brendalou, January 1, 2012

I was drawn into the world of 1Q84 at the end of 2011 after finding myself in a kind of world with two moons due to a diagnosis that literally, physically changed my perception of reality. What a comfort to crawl into this disquieting world with its layers and echoes of being lost. It was vibrating at the same resonance as the shadows in my brain. And, best of all, it was wonderful Haruki Murakami with his delightfully sinister creations such as the Cat Town. I've never read a book with so many dopplegangers!
