Book Review: South of the Border, West of the Sun

Cool title, depressing book.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I need a break from Murakami.

The latest novel that I read is about two star-crossed lovers, who meet as children, drift apart, and then meet again as adults.

When I finished this book I felt heavy, and was left wondering--what's the point? It's amazing that a book can carry that much emotion.

I felt the need to turn on TV and watch cheeseball Bret Michaels on reruns of Rock of Love.

Suddenly life is good again.
