I’ve been hearing from all sides that Bungaku Shoujo is really good – I’ve got to get it… a job before that – shipments are expensive.
I’ve heard a little about Kemono no Souja…
But these are weekly rankings – maybe can we get something like monthly for a better picture?

Ah. I really want to read Bungaku Shoujo. I really love “Short Story” Series like Shinigami no Ballad or Kino no tabi…

Kino no Tabi and Ballad of a Shinigami are my two favorite light novel series’.

I’ve been trying to find Kino No Tabi online in English forever now. I was wondering if you can tell me read to them…?

Baka-Tsuki has a translation going on, however, its pretty slow. TokyoPop hasn’t been able to release any further volumes of the series because of a licensing issue that has plagued them over the past few years.

Yeah, I checked those, Baka-Tsuki does not have Vol. 1 though. I do want to buy it though, but Tokyo Pop takes forever it seems.
Thank you though. I appreciate your help.
I may be able to read it raw if the Kanji has Ofurigana next to it.
