        I haven't seen an announcement for when Yume Nikki: I am not in your dream expires. I have been wondering if I need to binge read it anytime soon. I have only read slightly more than 2 parts now.

          Since it hasn't been announced yet, you can safely assume that the earliest it will expire is March 15, or otherwise the next expiration date beyond whatever has been announced.

            @myskaros Unless it was missed and they correct that. It has already been released and I thought the rule of thumb was the 15th of the month after it was released. However I didn't see the release date included in the calendar at all which may be why it was missed in the lists of when it would be discontinued.

            I buy most of the books J-Novel releases except for a select few series I didn't like enough to want access to any time I want. I haven't read enough to decide if I would buy Yume Nikki yet. It is a very unique book translated by J-Novel.

              I was under the impression that it was "generally the 15th of 1-2 months after the e-book release." So it's not 100% consistent.

                @myskaros Amazon has the release date listed as January 7th so by the rule of thumb it would either be February 15th or March 15th. I still have time, thanks for your help Myskaros.

                  Hi all!

                  The general rule is the 15th of the month after the ebook is released if the release date is before the 15th, or two months if after the 15th.

                  So books released January 1-15 will expire February 15th, but books from January 16-31 will expire March 15th.

                  Yume Nikki's release date was unsure for quite a while, which is why it wasn't on the list until now. It's set to expire on February 15th.

                  I was the editor for that one, and I highly recommend it. It's difficult to read a lot in one sitting though. Very psychologically heavy!

                      @aimee-zink for my daughter will expire before its release? We don't get to finish it before it's gone?

                        @nichtmalda this is probably a typo since vol. 4 was never up for expiration.

                        @Aimee-Zink the updates are nice but giving feedback to some peoples confusion would be nice ;)

                              New to this website and struggling to read the non-expired volumes. I see the "Read Now" link next to the volume name but when i click it nothing happens, the page just refreshes. I tried it for several series that are not expired yet, and I am a premium member as well.

                              What am i doing wrong ?
                              (do i need to use the app ? i am reading through my laptop right now)

                              thanks,

                                @yog1389 Clicking the volume or available part (that makes it look like it refreshes) selects that part, but then you have to find the "Read Now" blue button below the volume cover image, and it will take you to the web reader.

                                          Made it threw

                                          Arifureta: From Commonplace to World's Strongest: Volume 4
                                          My Big Sister Lives in a Fantasy World: Volume 7
                                          Infinite Dendrogram: Volume 4

                                          and 4 volumes of Smartphone, just 2 more volumes left to go thankfully I can still read volume 6 in the first week of February if i cant get to it before the end of the month.

                                          kind of getting burned out with the catch up stuff after reading all of realist hero, along with outbreak company vol 1 & How NOT to Summon a Demon Lord: Volume 1 last month, didn't even get to make it to Walking My Second Path in Life.

                                          I guess I just put it and new life on the back burner for now, & take a break from the catch up stuff next month, since I really want to get back to invaders anyway.

                                            ha ! you skipped "i wanted to read" part :)
                                            that amounts to roughly 150+ anime and 100+manga.

                                            Barring some new anime that started in the last few months, i don't think there is much out there left to see. Open to suggestions though :)

                                            By the way, Any news on J-novel adding "WHAT’S WRONG WITH A GREAT HERO BEING JOBLESS" to their database ? its in the same universe as Grimgar so i would hope so!
