Haruki Murakami – Desire

This was great, a little Vintage mini with some of Murakami’s short stories in it. It acts as a great way to get into Murakami’s stuff, and I’m saying that as someone who’s now read maybe three or four of his works. It’s actually given me the buzz and made me want to pick up some more of his stuff, so I’ll probably get to that soon.

What’s cool about the “desire” theme is that it has multiple meanings and that it doesn’t just focus on sexual desire. For example, hunger and the desire for food is also prominent. And of course, Murakami’s writing is always great.

R. L. Stine – Trapped in Bat Wing Hall

I gave this book four stars for one reason and one reason only – it’s a Choose Your Own Adventure book, and it took me multiple attempts to get to the end. It was quite the challenge, for a kids‘ book.

What we have here then is one of R. L. Stine’s Goosebumps books, but with a twist. It puts the reader at the centre of the action as they try to escape from a creepy haunted house – while some evil kids try to stop you from making it out of there. Oh, and you have to collect some items along the way, like bandages from a mummy.
