I’ve got week 1’s thread up:

Week 1 of 後宮の烏 / 후궁의 까마귀

Hi guys! Seeing this up a bit early on my end since I’d have to set it up later tomorrow. Just bare basics for now, but wanted to have a thread up.

Sorry for the utter lack of any useful information on my end; I’ll be filling that in tomorrow. We’ll be going with the 12-week schedule based off of @Biblio and @henhen’s numbers, and will change if needed.

So I was reading about different book awards in Japan when I realized this LN is the winner of the 22nd Sense of gender awards.
Nothing more to add, just a bit of information I thought I’d share in case anyone is interested in gender and/or awards.

I’m probably not going to be able to keep up with the book club pace, but I’ve started a vocab sheet for the Korean version here:

후궁의 까마귀

@Naphthalene

Week 4 is also a bit late

I’m going to blame it on forum issues this time. Will be up in a few minutes!

Edit: wait, am I off by a full week? D: Aaagh, I’m so sorry if so! I’ve been moving to a new team at work and must’ve just completely lost track of time…

I went ahead and finished the first chapter.
However this is where I bail - I love the book but I need to take a break and read something simpler for a while. If I push myself too much I’ll get burnout.

My plan is to come back to this later in the year. I think the end of the first chapter is a good spot to take a break

[Naphthalene]

You are 1.5 weeks ahead. I think you could just slow down

But yes, not burning out is important.

[clam0618]

Thank you

I purposely pushed ahead to the end of chapter 1 because i wanted to reach a stopping point.

I’ll look forward to reading from chapter 2 onwards in a few months time.
