Jinbōchō's actually a really neat place to live~! There's tons of used book stores, curio shops, and the people there are all really nice!

The Tokyo Book Binding Club, Literature Preservation Society, and several book publishing ( Read more... )

[See a low and from-the-back perspective view of a black-haired woman walking around with her head in a book as she walks, reading intently. She isn't watching where she's going, but you can't really tell from this angle. ... Well, you can't tell until she runs into the big fountain in ( Read more... )

Ah! It's already Christmas Eve! I lost a day! I have to hurry to make sure everyone gets their gifts!

And, eh, I don't really have any money to buy books... Or anything else, I suppose. But the books! O-Oh, and, uh... If anyone needs a place to live, my new apartment ( Read more... )

Um... It's a little difficult to read with the ticking...I found an apartment to use for the moment, and it's nice and close to the library, so that's nice. Now I have somewhere to keep all my books, so I won't get them mixed up with the library ones! I'd really like to find a bookstore, though. It's so much better to be able to have them for ( Read more... )
