Japanese Novels

[close] For our Japanese book club ♪

[close] This group aims to bring people together that are interested in reading about Japan in English. This includes reading Japanese authors, non-fiction about Japan, and any other books that are based in Japan or around Japanese ideas. The goal is to read some books that might otherwise stay off our "to read" list and especially to read more Japanese authors - though we all know that we are reading the translators words when it comes to that aspect of the reading. Ideally, we will be reading one book per month and have a mixture of the three main groups lists above, with less non-fiction due to potential expenses. Please note that the point of this book club is NOT to provide a free reading list. If you are uninterested in participating in the discussions or polls, please reconsider joining.

[close] Keep up with the books we're reading in the Seattle-based PNW JET Alumni Association! We are meeting via Zoom - email bookclub (at) pnwjetaa (dot) org for more info.

[close] Hi Fellow Book Readers, Welcome to the Sad Girls Book Club! This group is for readers who love books that leave them contemplating life and its complexities. If you enjoy stories with characters navigating through their life, often expressing all sort of complex emotion. Sometimes with a philosophical twist, you're in the right place. I am looking forward to find readers who share similar tastes and up for discussions about the books we love. Whether you're a fan of Asian literature, slice-of-life narratives, or introspective novels, I welcome you to join us.
