I don’t think that’s necessarily the case. Konbini Ningen is half a year younger than コーヒーが冷めないうちに and it’s just half the price. Whatever the reason may be, it’s super annoying.
Actually, this one is a problem for me My original plan was to start Murata Marathon on my own sometime Fall/Winter 2021 and continue into 2022 and hopefully finishing in 2022.
Now, this book club will obviously go slower. But reading with others is so much more energizing~
On the other hand, there is also high risk of people dropping out on the way So, uh, I need a crystal ball or a clairvoyant to tell me which books will go first, so I can start with the ones at the end of the queue
Oh, and by the way, Murata also has 3 non-fiction books. As far as I could tell, these are reviews, articles, essays and such, compiled from various magazines.
I knew I shouldn’t buy 授乳 until the book club starts.
They have a point back sale now on Amazon.jp, they give back 30%. Not as good as the 50% a few months ago, but still.
Books in the sale: 消滅世界, 殺人出産 (if someone hasn’t bought it yet), 授乳, 星が吸う水, マウス.
Apparently it started a week ago, and it’s until 7/22.
I got the rest during the last sale/points back thing a while ago, but I bought this one now! I think it might not have been part of the sale last time, or maybe I just missed it.
Yeah, I’ve checked @Aislin 's post and it wasn’t.
I only bought 授乳 and 消滅世界 this time, and I’ve added the rest to my wish list. (I don’t like having tsundoku, even in a digital form.) Though I’m not sure if I get any notifications if they are discounted.
Just a quick heads-up that currently there is a Bookwalker coin cashback special going on (until 2021-07-26T00:59:00Z), which gives you around 40% or so cashback on all books afaict.
