I’m in Honolulu and am planning on going to book off today to buy some Japanese books – suggest me some books

Last day and I visited this store yesterday to buy two Haruki Murakami books and コンビニ人間. What is your favorite book?

  1. コンビニ人間 is a good one. It’s one of the first books I read cover to cover.

    I’m really into semi-Slice of Life Light Novels because they’re easy, quick reads that I can reasonably do in a couple days while still being fun.

    In that vein, I really loved **安達としまむら**, currently 10 volumes with 11 coming December. **キノの旅** is a good somewhat beginner recommendation as it’s easy enough and there are like 23 of them.

    Towards the more “intermediate side”, I enjoyed **天城ブリリアントパーク** 8 Volumes with a 9th supposedly being written but it’s been years. Also **涼宮ハルヒの憂鬱** is a classic, with the plot actually getting pretty damn good in the middle volumes.

    On the harder side, I enjoyed **ようこそ実力至上主義の教室へ** though I’m only 3 volumes in. Also **本好きの下剋上** same deal. It gripped me, but I stopped for Adachi and just haven’t got back to it.
