This book was excellent! I listened to the audiobook and the narration was super. It is a long novel but well worth it, especially narrated.

This was a dark but yet hopeful dystopian novel. It showed the evil of men but also how the good, through love, can shine through.

The novel is written in third person and follows Tsukuru as he does on a quest to find out why his friends alienated him years prior. The novel switches between present day, with Tsukuru trying to live a normal, happy live, and the past, which describes Tsukuru's depression and how he was able to overcome suicidal thoughts. Tsukuru has had many friends leave his life without explanation, and he has come to think of himself as "colorless", having nothing to offer anyone.
There are so many thought-provoking situations in this novel that I almost feel like I should go back and re-read it to fully understand everything that happened. I was left questioning several things from the novel, which is the reason for 4 stars. The reading, insight into the characters, etc was what kept me entertained.
