Besides Amazon, where can I buy Japanese versions of fictional books?

Hi there, I was wondering if there’s any other website to purchasing Japanese versions of fictional books? (Both physically and digitally)

I’ve been trying to find a Japanese copy of Wonder by R. J. Palacio on Amazon but couldn’t find one.

I appreciate any and all help!

  1. Just to be sure are you looking at [amazon.com](https://amazon.com)? Because japan has their own market place for content ([amazon.co.jp](https://amazon.co.jp)), you can buy digital content from the japanese amazon, but you need to sign up for an account listing a japanese address (it can be any random address) as your place of residence. you may also need to run a VPN that is hosted out of japan to get these books (there are free VPNs that you can use)

  2. I am a fan of older things on ebay. For instance you can likely find the Harry Potter series in Japanese for fairly cheap. Manga can be 2$ per book if you’ll buy a whole set

  3. eBay is golden, all my LNs are bought from there.

    Also you can buy thing from amazon.jp. You need to create a separate account but you can use the same email/credit card etc. They ship to where I live (Toronto Canada) with no problem so I would imagine they can ship to US as well.
