    @hirei will there be a feature added to remove titles from “Continue Reading” if we drop a series?

    I will be sticking with the following after reading the initial installments:
    A Wicked Lady’s Guide to Accidentally Saving the Kingdom: This was a total surprise with a protagonist who is outrageous and not at all self aware. I did not expect it from the title or the summary. I will stick with it to see where it goes.

    Genius in the Library: This Bookish Rookie Will Save the Day!: well, who can skip a story of a bookworm. I have some gripes about how easily the MC convinces people in power in certain situations. But, it is interesting.

    God Sleeps in Seafoam: Started off well and has an interesting world with a mix of fantasy and modern.

    Sorry Darling, but You Won’t Kill Me Again!: Seems Juvenile and too on the face. Might skip it in a few weeks. I do want to know what follows the cliffhanger we stopped at the pre-oub part 2.

    Edited to add:
    Father, Have You Sinned? An Assassin in Priest’s Robes: This started off well. I like Zach as a characters since he seems multi-faceted. So I guess I will stick with it.

    5 out of 7 LNs! This is a good haul. The other 2 premises aren't interesting to me. Considering I have read the other work of the author of the villainess LN in JNC (magical career at court), I know I don't even want to try it.

    @JohnRoss I too am not interested in reading the first few volumes of a series if the rest has to be purchased. I appreciate that the full reader's library has some good stuff, but they're only adding 2 new series a month. So I'll probably switch to a monthly plan and alternate between readers club and regular club if there's nothing new I want to read.

    A tip for the suggestion jar is have the series tab remember if I toggled on the follow only option between uses. Every time I swap to releases or account it forgets that I had that toggled and goes back to showing me all books.

    Can we request features for the mobile app? If so, I’d like a way to see future releases like on the website and a way to access “recently read” titles, what with the reader’s library not needing rentals.

    @hirei I was more referring to the fact that at all the other conventions this year someone from the discord channel was at the panel in the audience who could either post picture or at least the titles of what was being announced live. This has typically allowed whoever on staff is managing the slide deck release for the discord to post the slides during the panel rather than everything just being dropped once the panel's scheduled time wraps up.

    I don't think anyone expects any official livestream of the event exactly due to wireless limitations at these events.

    Unfortunately there is nothing which I am really interested in. Might give S-rank adventurer and green thumb a try.
    I am not complaining. The last haul including the many OLNs were a lot that I am barely catching up each week.
