-I just bought a copy of 책벌레의 하극상 제1부 and I’ll give it a try! I don’t speak any Japanese and somehow I couldn’t find the link to the book club.
-Wait, 이상한 과가 가게 has audio books? Ooh where are they sold?
-Wait, there’s going to be a video game of 이상한 과가 가게?? Ooh when?
(I haven’t actually read a lot of books in Korean, but I’ve read three and a half of the 이상한 과가 가게 series. Honestly it’s such a struggle to find books of the right difficulty level. These are just about right, as long as I make good friends with the dictionary. They’re fun too!)
A quick search shows they are available on other sites, but accessing them may be more difficult - I haven’t tried these myself, but usually Korean sites need ID verification and there’s the possibility they don’t accept foreign cards, there are regional restrictions, etc.
Cool, thanks for checking! Right now the thought of having to try to verify ID is a little intimidating, but maybe in the future when my skills are higher.
Hi everyone!
I know we have the book club for 책벌레의 하극상 going on, but I am interested in starting another book club for Korean for intermediate and advanced learners that would kick off in mid October or in November. However, I don’t know what genre most people here would be interested in (or if there is a big appetite for another book club at all), so I’ve made a poll!
If you would be interested, feel free to vote on the poll below and I can look at setting up an organizational thread and getting things started.
It’s not looking like we are going to get any more tie-breaking votes, so how do people feel about a general fiction/novel reading book club where broad suggestions from different genres are accepted as long as they’re still fiction and full length books? @brandon@bibliothecary
Great! We had one more voter (maybe it was you, @pieonakr?) but I’m not sure who since I set up the poll incorrectly! I’ll look at getting a home thread set up before the weekend so we can get started and make suggestions for the first book!
