1Q84

When I first started 1Q84, I was mostly just intrigued but not too impressed with the start.

30% in I decided I probably wasn't going to finish it but would give it just a bit longer to pull me in.

40% in I realized it was 925 pages and the dialogue was putting me to sleep.

For lack of anything better to read, I stuck it out.

60% in and I was hooked.

Don't go into this lightly and give it time to build.
