The Google Play Books store contains a huge amount of self-published works. Many of the Indie books are listed, and you can even read a free sample before you buy to get a feel for how good the writing and translation are. The Google Play Books app is also pretty good for reading on the go.

Wait, does that include the office worker and the taller love interest? I read a fan translation of the first few chapters on a blog that no longer exists. Scanlation for that kind of stuff is incredibly ephemeral – people read it for a while, and then they drop it, or the site gets taken down. Completed volumes can generally be found through the official publisher, but for those, you have to wait until they announce a sale or a “Free First Volume” promotion on their social media accounts. Unlike the ad-ridden and ‘free manga no sign up’-promising pages that will give you a virus, it’s a bit of a waiting game, but safer.

My friend had shared a TikTok about it and in the video the creator said it was only available on the WebComics app. I’ve since downloaded it and yep, it’s all there. The app itself is pretty meh but they really want to get you to spend coins to get access to episodes faster. However, you can read the comic totally free if you’re willing to wait for the tickets to reset each day. Interestingly though, the comments section on each panel is really active and fun to read through, which sort of adds to your reading experience.

This well-written horror novella was a solid B for me. While it certainly did not break new ground within the genre, it was well-structured and highly engrossing. I particularly enjoyed the author’s use of two timelines: the present day and the years spent locked in a filthy basement by the main antagonist. As expected, the basement scenes were at times claustrophobic, but the author managed to move the plot along regardless. The main antagonist was also effectively creepy without crossing over into ‘villain’ space. My biggest wish would have been for more development of the supporting characters outside of our central family unit. As it was, however, they served their purpose for the brief space of time in which they appeared. As a short, weekend read that will take you exactly where you want to go while proving thoroughly engrossing along the way, it delivers.

Every manga I read is stored on Manta or Tappytoon, but I have no idea which is which most of the time. All five of the different apps I subscribe to have similar icon colors and UIs, making them mostly indistinguishable from one another. Instead, I generally go through my list of “Continue Reading” titles, looking for the cover of the one I left off. And yes, my manga library is a total, fragmented mess, spread across five different subscriptions. It’s not an ideal way to do things, but that’s where we are right now.

This is my own hack, but I can read chapters on both Webnovel and Tapas in a row. Since both Webnovel and Tapas have almost identical promotions for new users (i.e. free passes and free daily chapters) reading on both will effectively double the amount of free chapters you can read at the beginning. The only catch is that you need to keep track of your progress (since the chapter numbering might differ if the chapters are bundled in a different way) by either keeping track of it mentally or by writing it down in a note somewhere. It requires a bit of extra work, but it works.

When searching for a free novel online I approach it all as a game and each click is a gamble to see if I get a decent website or a site that has been infected with a virus. I managed to strike gold on my third search for a free novel online, FreeNovel.me was the site that I stumbled upon and it had a good ‘next chapter’ button and I was also able to alter the font size which was a luxury as some sites don’t have these facilities. The novel was great, it had the perfect mix of scheming and romance and slowly developed throughout. The male lead was obsessed and this was portrayed in a very creepy yet fascinating way. The site was so easy to read around that I actually was able to get into the story rather than reading and then searching for the next chapter.

It's also good to point out the cons of reading online. Most people will just blurt out "syosetu.com" but very few actually explain the site's flaws. For one, the mobile version of the site is incredibly hard to navigate. And even with the best of browser extensions, the text on the site looks horrible. Of course, the official site is supposed to be the best way to read online, but the experience isn't always smooth. The page will sometimes reload for no reason, and in the ads section, there are so many banner ads that it's a pain to read. If you do end up reading online, just be prepared for the website to be just as hard to deal with as the language itself. Having realistic expectations for the online reading experience can save you a lot of frustration.

Reading the free parts and then coming back to the story after a break can also work. Once in a while Webnovel has a site-wide promotion, where privilege chapters are cheaper or even all series have a ‘free access weekend’. I’ve been stockpiling coins during those big sales and as a result, the cost for me to read more has turned from prohibitive to manageable. There are tons of great progression fantasies that offer much more free content on Royal Road, or even 100% free on the author’s website. ‘Shadow Slave’ is great and all, but there are so many more games to play, so to speak. Diversifying my reading makes the waiting for free access or sales much less painful.

How do people get access to free audiobooks outside of libraries? Are there services like Spotify that offer them? I feel like I’m really behind on the whole audio thing.
