Reading (final!) Vol. 5・不可解なぼくのすべてを・FukaBoku ♀♂ (Beginner Book Club)

Welcome to 不可解なぼくのすべてを

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 :slight_smile:

Currently reading: Volume 5

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.

Not sure if this is for you? Check out the Nomination Post and try reading the first chapter for free on comic.pixiv (second chapter is also free) - remember that your fellow book club members and the vocab sheet will be here to help you out though :wink:

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 :stuck_out_tongue:

Wait, really? I can only read the first few pages on pixiv, so I’d specifically not bothered with it because more was available on BookWalker…!

Oooooooooooh, there’s a separate listing for the individual chapters. Is that not pretty weird? Why would they do that… Anyway, thanks for the nudge :blush:

Week 1

Omgeeeeee here we go!

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 :slight_smile:

Please also set this thread to ‘watching’ to receive notifications when I post the weekly threads :+1:

I just wanted to say that if the off-shot club will happen, I can do the weekly posts. :wave:
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.

Continue?

Thank you! I think the one thread per volume thing usually seems to work pretty well :blush: 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
  • I’m going to read volume 2 in my own time
  • I’m not planning to keep going with this series

Since there seems to be enough interest, I made the volume 2 thread:

Aaand we already have a schedule, since 100% of people are ready to start anytime.
@radish8, could you add the volume 2 link to the main post?

I liked your comment and then totally forgot to do it I AM SO SORRY

I’ve added it in just in time for the final week :see_no_evil: let me know if you’re planning to continue!

Yes, and
