Hey all!! It's WoW time! As always Waiting on Wednesday is a wonderful meme hosted by Breaking the Spine.

This week is 1Q84 (even though it just came out yesterday I can still  wait on reading it! >< ).


The year is 1984 and the city is Tokyo.

A young woman named Aomame follows a taxi driver's enigmatic suggestion and begins to notice puzzling dicrepancies in the world around her. She has entered, she realizes, a parallel existance, which she calls 1Q84 "Q is for 'question mark.' A world that bears a question." Meanwhile, an aspiring writer named Tengo takes on a suspect ghostwriting project. He becomes so wrapped up with the work and its unusal author that, soon, his previously placid life begins to come unraveled.

As Aomame's and Tengo's narratives converge over the course of this single year, we learn of the profoiund and tangled connections that bind them ever closer.
