You need to read more books then.
I recently picked up The Wind Up Bird Chronicle... I was intruged. So far so good, Murakami is a very fluent writer, or at least the translation is.

This is sitting right in front of me. I haven't opened it yet though I've had it for like a month. Except to look at the pictures, heh.

I picked up Murakami's Kafka on the Shore. Blew me away.

Right now tryin to get some vonnegut (timequake) and a book called Life of Pi done before school. Life of Pi though is aggravating me though, something about the guy's writing I suppose.

Really? I thought Life of Pi was a very breezy read, and an excellent book, especially when it starts getting surreal. Plus a legitimately brilliant ending.

What else have you read by vonnegut? I highly recommend reading Cat Cradle if you haven't already.
