Have just finished "The Trial" by Kafka as I've read all the Murakami books that are available on the kindle and he's supposed to be the most Murakami-esque author. Or rather, I think Murakami is Kafka-esque.
It was alright but not quite as good as a Murakami. Maybe it's time for a proper book again as I haven't read "What I talk about when I talk about running".
@ltc do it, I loved all of 1Q84.

‘The Islanders’ by Christopher Priest has a slightly Murakami vibe to it. I would recommend.
I just started ‘The Power’ by Naomi Alderman. Only a few chapters in but I’m already well on board.

I finished the first part of 1Q84 a couple of years ago, I'm not sure if I need to reread it before starting the second part. Will I be lost if I just jump back in?
Also, has anyone read all 3 of the Southern Reach trilogy? I loved Annhilation but am really not keen on Authority. I'm nearly done with it but have found it incredibly dull and not particularly well written. Is it worth reading Acceptance?

Absolutely devoured this (it's only short). It's been around awhile but was new to me. I don't run but that didn't hinder my enjoyment of it at all.
