Book Review: 1Q84 by Haruki Murakami, Book 3

Title: 1Q84 [ Japanese: いちきゅうはちよん | ichi-kew-hachi-yon ]
Author: Haruki Murakami
Language: English (translated)
Translated by: Jay Rubin & Philip Gabriel
Original Language: Japanese
Date Published: October 25, 2011 (English language edition)
Genre: Fantasy, Alternate History, Parallel Worlds, Horror
ISBN: 9780307593313
Publisher: Alfred A. Knopf
Jacket Design: Chip Kidd

Book 3 is the last volume of 1Q84. With my excitement about what happened in book 2, book 3 killed it. Finishing the last volume of 1Q84 leaves readers with speculations like with Haruki Murakami's other titles (see Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage by Haruki Murakami).

I can no longer detail my experiences reading this book. I finished this book several months ago and I missed writing my review due to work. I'm just blogging this for the record.

I conclude, It's a happy ending story.

My rating for 1Q84 book 3, is: 3.0 / 5.0

Thanks!
