Hi everyone, hope you're enjoying your end-of-year holidays! Sorry for the late reminder, but since we're all gonna be up for the new year anyway, catchups will be changing on Friday in the early hours US time, so you only have a couple days left to read December catchups!

@HarmlessDave Indeed Brother Dave, two shall be the number of weeks allowed to be skipped and the number weeks allowed to be skipped shall be two.

Or less. Less is good... YOU MALODOROUS PERVERT

(Old joke response reference)

@SomeOldGuy Yep, I just woke up and removed it lol. It might take a minute to properly go away, or you might need to hard-refresh D:

Just a reminder to get your reading in, because catchups will be rotating on Tuesday the 1st around 1800 GMT!

@cheroselumaine said in J-Novel Club e-books now available on OverDrive:

Of those books, I have found a few series where the first volume was either already available or available for recommendation, but then none of the rest is in Overdrive even though there's 2-5 more volumes in circulation elsewhere. Does J-Novel have a certain schedule for adding things to Overdrive, or anything like that? I don't mind if it's irregular, but it'd be nice to know how often to check if there's a pattern.

I've also noticed this - some series published by JNC are completely updated in the overdrive catalog while others (Bookworm, Villainess, Marielle Clarac, etc) are missing the most recent volumes. I would love to be able to recommend them to my library to purchase if they make it into the catalog! Thank you!

@Royal-Genitals Can you please post something in the Support forum? Be as thorough as possible: PC or mobile? Windows, Mac, iOS, Android? Screenshots if possible, otherwise describe step by step what's happening and when something is failing.

The problem has been fixed! Fake Fake Princess v3 should now be available for download, and the other 3 books have been moved back to their original release dates. Thanks for your patience!

Sorry for not posting an update here as well, but the print replacements program has now concluded. Any claims postmarked by September 30, 2020, will be honored.

@Caerold I believe this was already answered in the other topic, but for anyone reading this one, JNC does not have the rights to distribute our translations for Ichijinsha series in Japan, so Bibliophile Princess, Marielle Clarac, Bakarina, and Beast Head are unavailable to readers in Japan. We apologize for the inconvenience.

@Terabyte @LegitPancake No interesting news other than "we know more volumes exist and we're working on getting them going as soon as we can!"

@the-green-death said in August Catchups: Little Apocalypse, Otherside Picnic, and more!:

After the first three parts I’m not feeling Otherside Picnic

I like the first 3 volumes so far. At first it's a little unsettling, because there's too much that you don't know and it makes it hard to like the characters, but that gets solved fairly quickly. The story starts to flow better once you trust the characters a bit more, which I think is very real-life.

The only thing I would fault the series for is that there seem to be two volumes of side stories before volume 4. Personally, I hate that, and I'm hoping that J-Novel picks up Volume 4 first, but that's just me.

@LeftyHandCream

As the comment a few slots up mentioned, because the 1st of the month falls on a weekend the shift to August catch ups will happen on Monday (today), that being said it is still very early in the United States, business hours have not started yet.

Your patience is appreciated

Since everything else has gone up I wonder how long it will be before The Bloodline is uploaded to the site.

@myskaros Tanks, butt I read all that looked interesting already (paying to win, Sexiled, AltTina) so I await the July catch-ups

@Jason-Maranto I agree, the art-style doesn't seem to match the cover illustration, and personally I don't care for it.

Sorry for the late reminder, but catchups for May are ending on Monday around 7 PM UTC!

I am so freaking happy, I had been trying to read honzuki, and had to rush it since I just joined a few days ago. Love and hugs for you!!!

Reminder to all readers that this promotion will be ending next week, so read any books you have left to try and sign up for your free membership trial before then!
