So apparently my epub of the book is borked, since the furigana are messed up, so now I don’t have a good version of the book . To top it off, bookwalker for some reason doesn’t allow me to pay with my phone for this book (all other have worked fine).
Guess I’ll maybe have to do my first order from cdjapan… Luckily meanwhile the bookwalker trial goes until page 66, if I can bear to read with my PC.
Sorry I missed this reply last week! Yes, and yes (my guess the book would be less than 10 bucks with ~60 for shipping) but hey I thought maybe you were an American and wanted to use those 600 Biden Bucks.
A quick heads up for those of you who so far needed a fair amount of time to read the weekly assignments:
This week will bring us a leisurely 34 pages, while next week gets a steep ramp-up to 49 pages (followed by a week with 36 pages), so if you want to reduce next week’s load a bit, please feel free to read ahead to spread the pages more evenly across the three weeks. (Of course, no spoilers please )
Also, I’ve finally gotten around to presenting the proper nouns in a better way in the weekly threads - I hope you like it this way! (If you have any questions or suggestions, please feel free!)
So, I have been reading in Japanese for the past few years but lately been wanting to advance beyond anime stuff.
I got both of the books (the ones for the current and upcoming group read). Started reading yesterday and have completed the second chapter. Not sure if it is possible but I plan to catch up by Week 9. If I can’t do it, then I’d atleast join you guys for the next one from the beginning.
I finally decided to buy the book while it was on coin back sale on bookwalker Was hoping I could catch up, but I didn’t know the book club had reached the final week already!
Looking at these stats, I must say I truly loved this book club! I think we don’t usually have such a consistent number of participants basically from week 4 all the way to the end Also the discussions were kept alive until the end - with this amazing spike of comments in week 6! Thanks to all who participated in reading and who shared their thoughts in the threads.
And of course a special thanks to @miwuc who tirelessly researched all names that appeared in the book!

Are you in Japan? Wouldn’t a single book have quite an expensive shipping cost still, though?

. Hopefully I can do it this week with the shorter page count.
