That's on my back burner as well...haven't gotten around to it. I invested a lot of time in 1Q84. Overall not time wasted exactly, but it's not his best work, nor "tight" by any means. Could have been much shorter than the 900 pages or so it was.

Right now I am reading Super Sad True Love Story.

After watching Bosch on Amazon, I started reading some of Michael Connelly's books. City of Bones (2002) has mediocre writing but it was pretty sensible as detective stories go. So I tried The Last Coyote (1995), which was fairly well-written and interesting; also much more in keeping with the hard-boiled subgenre. This leads me to suspect that his earlier novels might be stronger in general so I just started his first, The Black Echo (1992).

It's been a while since I've had the time or desire to read outside of my studies.

For no particular reason other than I've never read one of Stephen Hawking's books, I recently began A Brief History of Time. I'm a biologist, but there were many portions of physics that I enjoyed. Looking forward to finishing this one.

I'm reading Leviathan Wakes by James S.A. Corey.. it's book 1 of his Expanse series. Soon to be a tv series so I want to feel superior to the people who only watched the tv series

Intermediate Accounting I (Kieso) and Federal Taxation for Individuals. Seeing if I can grasp accounting basics in case I can ever afford to go back to school.

I'm getting it, for the most part. I've heard Intermediate is what makes or breaks you as a potential accounting student, so if I can pull this off, I may not be a total idiot after all...

I restarted reading Haruki Murakami's "The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle." A novel of this size took some time to adjust to. When you appreciate his style there is a brilliant quality which is sometimes described as "magical realism." Murakami is a master of magical realistic narration.
