I have finished “The Wind-up bird chronicles” by Murakami. Absolutely great book. I went through it rather quickly (for me anyway). The prose is incredible especially considering it’s translated from Japanese.

The italians are complaining about the heat more than me. This keeps surprising me considering I’m usually the first to complain about it being too hot. To me it’s not horribly overwhelming, but I still have no fan so I’m not able to sleep enough. That’s at the top of my to-do list…
