Here’s my card! I’ve left in a few prompts that I wouldn’t have included if I had to choose myself to make sure I get out of my comfort zone, but I’ve also swapped out some that I know I wouldn’t do even if I included them.
Here are the new prompts:
- Queer
- Non-fiction
- Cultural flair
- Qualifier list
- Character speaks in a dialect
No modifiers, but I will try and pick books from my wishlist when possible. As for manga, I’ll try to only use one book for each series I read.
I’m excited about all of the prompts, and I want to start NOW ![]()

As for planning…
Sci-fi OR cats: 시간 고양이 | L20 Ecological sci-fi WITH A CAT? Yes.I ended up using this book for "set in a period that’s not modern. If I ever get around to reading the next books in the series though…
- Past book club: maybe I’ll finally get around to reading https://learnnatively.com/book/f37a2098ed/ after seeing praised everywhere.
- Dialect: I could use The Summer Hikaru Died, but I feel like it would break the spirit of the law. I’ll find something with a Korean dialect hopefully.
- Non-fiction: I’d like to read an 아무튼 essay, but they look hard still. Maybe towards the end of the year…
- Finish a series: this year is the year I finish series
I only really have 4 that I’m hoping to finish: 노인의 꿈 첫 번째 이야기 | L20 (it’s a duology, I really have no excuse for not reading vol. 2), I’ve read 3 out of the 6 나빌레라 시리즈 | L19 books, I’ve read up to book 4 of The Summer Hikaru Died (I think there are 7 books now?), and as for Dam in the Forest I’m only missing the last 3 out of 10 volumes! 할 수 있어!I ended up finishing 노인의 꿈 첫 번째 이야기, as planned. Doesn’t mean I’m giving up on the rest though.
