Tardy #QOTD for July 25, 2023, is from #NorwegianWood by #HarukiMurakami Translated by #JayRubin "It's 'cause you show it...You make it obvious you don't care whether people like you or not. That makes some people mad."

#SuperFrogSavesTokyo by #HarukiMurakami, is now an illustrated hardback gift book for adults. Murakami prompts us to consider are we antiheroes or could we be heroes? My review is at #paperbarkwords blog (link in bio) #jayrubin #sebagresti #suzanneldean #penguinrandomhouse #harvillbooks
