For2026, Just about finished with the latest dungeon crawler Carl. Much fun, as usual. Before that, I just finished Brandon Sanderson‘s tailored realities, which also, fantastic for a collection of short stories. Ended 2025 with David Brin’s The Postman. I’m going to read it again, but there’s so much there, that story needs its own thread

Hi there. Just as a heads up, this is not a book community but a "Light Novel" (a specific type of Japanese novel) community. If you're interested, we can give you some recommendations to get into that genre.

I haven't read it, but several of my anime/manga acquaintances have read DCC and it seems like it is about as LN-adjacent as you can get in western literature. It's been recommended to me a couple times now.

My bad! I see the name of the community now.

<To Another World... with Land Mines!> Volume 12 - The two separate plotlines (Meikyo Shisui and Jade Wings) finally converge in this volume, and their different personalities create some funny moments. The volume ends on a cliffhanger, so this is multi part arc.

Vol. 5 - I like it when there is actually a Witch and a Mercenary in the volume. Especially when the Witch does #JustWitchThings ("Feeling grumpy, might destroy a religion").

<TsukiMichi: Moonlit Fantasy> - Volume 08 & 08.5

I have continued TsukiMichi.

If you have seen the Anime:

Volume 8 covers the monster attacks on Rotsguard.

Volume 8.5 covers the summer side stories. ( Mana matter, The students dragon hunt, wolf & bear, etc )
