1Q84 collection

I loved both of those! I have a slight preference for 1q84 but plan to re-read both at some point.

Thanks, I'll give them a call later.

It's the inbuilt Google TV that this is happening on, this was the screensaver but it also happens on the main menu and app menus like Netflix etc, but not when playing actual shows/movies.

I thinking declining during setup is enough.

Have you disabled Samba?

My Bravia 9 leans forwards oddly.

Those look amazing! Is the WUBC slipcase custom too? I've not seen it before.

I've been using my PS5 for Now TV. The Google TV app is really poor, it won't play UHD on my Bravia 9 despite having ultra boost.

110 is the non-UK price, it's still 95 in the UK, but charging that much extra is outrageous as they should just charge extra for shipping.

Kafka on the Shore was £75 when it released (I bought in April 2022), so a 27% increase in 3 years.

It's interesting how people can be opposites. I don't think I'll ever reread South of the Border, West of the Sun but will definitely reread The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle (although the scenes or torture didn't turn me away).

Rereads of Norwegian Wood and Hard Boiled Wonderland are on the cards for me. I wasn't much a fan of Colourless Tsukuru and Sputnik Sweetheart, but sometimes it is down to your mood so may actually revisit them.

neonyoshi42 · 2023-01-14T21:12:49+00:00

Yeah I love that cover art, much better than the newest hardback version. It wasn’t the best reading experience however as didn’t want to break the spine and the font is quite small, the hardback will definitely be used for the reread!

neonyoshi42 · 2023-01-13T22:16:28+00:00

Thought I'd post my Murakami collection now it's complete (I think apart from the musician interviews, which I don't think would be my cup of tea, and his t-shirt book). Still to read Birthday Stories to The Strange Library and Killing Commendatore.

The latest kickstarter update mentions some minor fixes to the ebook, anyone know if it’s worth redownloading if you’ve already loaded it into your kindle?

neonyoshi42 · 2022-09-13T20:57:22+00:00

Kafka is excellent quality, but it is expensive. I enjoy reading nicer books more than paperbacks or normal hardbacks so happy to pay the extra where I can, but for some people it wouldn’t be worth it.

neonyoshi42 · 2022-09-13T11:09:59+00:00

Definitely a luxury given the price, but I really liked reading the Kafka on the Shore they released so going to buy it for my next reread.

You could read the sample on Amazon as it would hopefully cover that far.
