Spoilers should always be hidden using spoiler blur.
When discussing a specific section, please mention where you are in the book, ideally by chapter so people reading different versions have a clear point of reference.
Feel free to read ahead if it’s exciting, but please refrain from spoiling ahead of the appropriate week.
If you have a question about grammar, vocab, cultural things, etc - ask! That’s a welcome part of the discussion too, and other readers will be happy to help.
I’m going to Japan soon-ish and have to get some other stuff read first, so I will probably start the book afterwards, but am very much looking forward to it.
I can see that happening in Japan, but I would personally pick someone with 3 years of work experience over a rando who’s been sitting on a chair for 2-4 years at the university… It’s wild to me that she can’t find a place at least as good as the previous one.
