We read this as the Beginner Book Club! We’re now continuing the series beyond volume 1 as an offshoot - check out that Beginner Book Club thread to see what we’re currently reading as our main pick.
You’re always welcome to continue posting in the discussion threads (linked below) if you’re reading at a later date and have unanswered questions or thoughts you’d like to share
If you want to take part… just buy the book and join in the discussion! We also recommend setting this thread to ‘watching’ so that you receive notifications when the discussion threads are posted.
If you haven’t used Amazon JP before, note that you will need a separate account. CDJapan has (slow) economy shipping options available so is usually cheaper.
I didn’t know it is already ending! I always claim I prefer short, or at least finished series, and then always get invested in long, still ongoing things.
So I’m happy to hear it will be a break from this curse
The most important rule of the book club is not to hesitate to post any questions you have, however small or however many. It’s not a book club without discussion
Please also set this thread to ‘watching’ to receive notifications when I post the weekly threads
I just wanted to say that if the off-shot club will happen, I can do the weekly posts.
I was thinking about one thread per volume and the same vocab sheet, similarly to シメジシミュレーション.
Thank you! I think the one thread per volume thing usually seems to work pretty well even if it starts out a little busier the later chapters usually get more sedate so if just feels silly posting a whole new thread.
Who’s interested? I always prefer comitting to a series when I know it has an end-point in sight, and this one is a very conservative five volumes!
I’d like to continue reading volume 2 with the club
let me know if you’re planning to continue!
