| 2015's First Blood: Haruki Murakami's The Strange Library and After Dark, Arthur C. Clarke's 2001: A Space Odyssey |
I started 2015 by challenge myself to read 15 books in total this year. I know it was shallow, but better shallow than unrealistic. So that mean I have less than a year to finished them all. Earlier this month, I bought Haruki Murakami's
After Dark and
The Strange Library, and also Arthur C. Clarke's
2001: A Space Odyssey. Both Murakami's books already rested on the bookshelf and it only takes a full two weeks to finish it. Soon I'll make the review of those books, as good as I can, as short it can be, as informative as it can be. While for Arthur's book, I guess I'll keep it untouched for a moment now; because I believe to read it, it need some consistency and concentration. Reading sci-fi, in my honest opinion, is like studying; you need an extreme concentration and there is high probability that even after you finished it, you didn't understand the story, or missing some keypoints or always wondered "
what the reason of this? what the reason of that?" thingies. So, yeah, that's the reason why I put aside this Odyssey and continue to read some light books I bought earlier.
TTFN.
