I’m not sure that I’ll vote or participate this time around (since I have a habit of dropping book club books), but the one nice thing about lists is that it’s less jumping around on mobile, for those of us using the app version of the forums.
I don’t think it makes a huge difference personally though.
Is there an ebook available?: yes Is there an audiobook available?: yes Is there an all-furigana version available?: no? (Optional) Is this book available in Korean?: no?

Why are you nominating this book: This has been in my to read pile for a while now. The summary (and the cover ) give me some Kamisama Hajimemashita mixed with Spirited Away vibes and I definitely want to give it a try!
I mean to send out a reminder this past weekend for nominations but forgot, so here’s one more: I’ll open up voting later today to give a chance for any last-minute nominations to come in, so get them in while you still have the chance!
Aaah, thank you as always, bibliothecary! I’ll go add those right away. If you happen to know of any German/Spanish translations I can add those too.
Edit: Done! I’ve also added in the hyperlinks to the Korean Natively page for each book on their Korean flag icon; it’s not 100% intuitive, but I don’t want to mess with the table structure too much at this point.
