Huh, I get recommended Murakami a lot but really didn't enjoy Colorless - maybe I'll try a different one.

Try something pre-2010. The 2010s aren't really representative of his other work nor, to be honest, quite as good as his earlier books.

If you are looking for more of magical realism Murakami has become known for, I highly recommend Hard-Boiled Wonderland, The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle. But really anything 1Q84 and earlier is good IMO.

Colorless is one of his worst books IMO. I would recommend Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World or Kafka on the Shore.
