All shipping options there was to Kanto, making it harder and more expensive for us all to get.
I found it here: YESASIA: Tsuredure Children 1 - Wakabayashi Toshiya - Comics in Japanese - Free Shipping
A little bit more expensive, but not too bad. Free international shipping if I understand correctly. I think this could be a good option!
I’ve been needing to start reading more, I’m definitely going to check out some of the stuff on here, thanks!

“Products Eligible for Free Shipping
We’re offering Free Shipping on orders over US$39!”
If you want to spend $39, sure 
Not sure how the costs for transport are though.
I think we have a lot of recommendations already to start with the pool. People will still be able to join us later on. Shall I make the pool to decide the first book/manga?
- Yes.
- No.

Please add me!
Done 
I honestly didn’t look into that hah… After doing some research, shipping seems to be $5 + $2 per shipment units, whatever that means. I guess it’s a bit shit, but not impossible… There might be better options.
If I had noticed that sooner I would have just added more items D=
I paid 50, with 15 being the shipping =/
I got nr 1, 2, 3, 5, and 6. Annoyed they didn’t have nr 4 XD
Also, make sure to grab the Japanese version and not the Chinese, since they have both it would be easy to make that mistake =P
Apparently I’ve used them before, they had my UK address! =D
But haven’t used them since moving back to Norway it seems =)
I’m guessing you probably don’t have enough time on your hands to participate in both? If you do happen to have the time, I don’t see why you couldn’t participate in both groups.
But assuming you don’t have enough time for both, I’d recommend you go with Autumn Prison if you’re already interested in reading that anyway. Since it will be a bit more challenging than our beginner group, you’d probably benefit from the other group more, I’d think. Just a suggestion!
I’d also suggest メアリと魔女の花 as an option as well, the grammar seemed easy enough for me to understand, and I’ve been struggling with other books, and from what I can tell from where I bought it, it has two versions, one with some small illustrations and furigana on all of the kanji, and one without either of those things, so if you need the furigana to help look up kanji or to read it, the option is there.
Also helpful enough the site gives you a bit of a preview into the book so people can see if they can work out the grammar.
Links to the place I bought the ebooks(doesn’t have inbuilt dictionary, but recently started taking normal debit cards and has a rewards program if you care about that kind of thing)
Version with drawings and furigana
version without.

Autumn Prison is easy enough for N5/4? Maybe I will do both groups then. More reading the better.
I’m only guessing based on beginner members finding it easy enough. I don’t know its actual level

Only two votes! D=
Hehe, I can’t even vote for all my favorites 
Think I’d be fine with just about any on the list though =^_^=
@jprspereira Perhaps we should have made a post detailing each of the suggestions before a vote, as there was a person who wasn’t sure what each of the options were.
Either way though, I picked the options I did because I already owned those books, I’m more than willing to buy something else if it’s picked. On the manga, are we reading the entire series, or by volume?
Hey, I’ll join too!
