Struggling to find a particular book. I was going to buy it on Rakuten Kobo, but they literally won't sell it if you're not in Japan.

nyaa.si has a bunch. Just be careful to not download the manga instead. (Both are under the same section, "Literature".)

Sadly it didn't have this one :(

If you share the title and author, I can try searching for it.

Doesn't that violate rule #3?

You’re right, sorry about that. Since top-level domains are allowed, I have been able to find most books in various languages using resources provided either on https://fmhy.net/reading or on VK.

Thank you! I found it on Anna's Archive.

What about trying with a VPN?

Pretty sure the store requires that you provide a Japanese phone number. That's where it was complaining for me.
