World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War by Max Brooks

I wanted to like this book, I really did. But it just wasn’t meant to be.

Kafka on the Shore by Haruki Murakami [Philip Gabriel (translator)]

Murakami is one of those authors you always hear about, either in praises by other people or in people’s to-read lists. And so, Murakami was added to my to-read list, just so I could find out what the hype is all about. I knew it wasn’t going to be a straightforward story or a simple subject, but boy did I underestimate the amount of metaphor and surrealism!

Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro

Such a long time taken to finish this novel… Such a long time that I felt like I was the narrator herself.

Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? (And Other Concerns) by Mindy Kaling

Hey, there! First day of 2017! Is anyone else excited? No? Me either 😛

Technically, I finished reading Is Everyone Hanging in 2016, that is, on the last day of 2016. So, I’m counting this as a 2016 read and adding this book to my 2016 Goodreads Reading Challenge. (I still didn’t reach my number though… but missing by 2 seems slightly better than missing by 3, somehow.)

The Gift by Cecelia Ahern

This is one of the books I bought about a month ago but never got around to reading. To be honest, this was just an impulse buy. It was on discount at the store… 😐

I wrote a review for The Perks of Being a Wallpaper a while ago.

This book appears to be a perfect Christmas read, it’s all about family, love, relationships, and a bit of magic. It looks to have been designed around Christmas-time sentiments, and I have mixed feelings about that. The fact that it is so theme-based made me feel put off.

Surviving Michael by Joseph Birchall

This was a surprising book… Not just because I didn’t think it would be any good, but because the turn of events were a little bizarre as well…
