ok to any of the people who expressed their interest into joining a book club, join this:
kokoro o toraeru.
i can't think of a book club title to use, so because right now i'm so addicted to murakami, i pulled it off a quote from one of his books.
"On any given day, something claims our attention [literally "grabs our hearts": kokoro o toraeru] Anything at all, inconsequential things. A rosebud, a misplaced hat, that sweater we liked as a child, an old Gene Pitney record. A parade of trivia with no place to go. Things that bump around in our consciousness for two or three days then go back to whereever they came from... to darkness. We've got all these wells dug in our hearts. While above the wells, birds flit back and forth."
— Haruki Murakami (Pinball, 1973)
good novels are hard to come by, and those that grab my heart i always remember.
i posted some just so the community doesn't look lonely being that i am the lone member. but not for long, right? come on, guys!
i guess the plan is to write about any book you like, recommend, or are interested in reading, authors, or any book-related things AND ideally i want to read one book per month with you guys.
wouldn't it be kinda cool, that although we are all from different places, that we'll read the same book and talk about it? i've always liked the idea of book clubs, but being that i don't have time to meet at a regular basis, this is the only way i can do it.
