Murakami's Prose
There's a section of the book that talks a lot about trains and railroads, and it gets very technical to the point of losing the reader along the way if they're not familiar with the trade. (0 more)

Disturbingly relevant even to contemporary events
Philip Roth's vivid dystopian novel depicts America under a fascist government through the eyes of a 9-year-old boy in the peak of World War One. It's dark and compelling, showing how creeping discrimination can ultimately make way for potential genocide. Absolutely grim yet gripping.

[BOMB] by [Steve Sheinkin] is the story of the development of the atomic bomb during World War II. It is broken into readable chunks and although it is very information heavy it is still interesting. As a YA nonfiction novel it is ok. The topic itself lends itself to being a little dry.

Quick read

So this was a one-shot book where each page has an illustration and a sentence or a fragment of a sentence that goes with the image.

Spooky graphic novel with some interesting peices that I wish could have had a little more back story to.
