In case someone missed it, there is currently a Nomination Round where you can nominate your favorite picks for our very own Lightnovel Awards!

The thing is, with how much time is invested in reading a light novel, not everyone may have read some of your picks. So for this week’s Midweek discussions, I’ll provide a dais where one can explain why their pick should win over someone else’s.

ps.: Very few nominations so far. Myne says you should get your asses up and start nominating!

    Haha, I love this. BTW, you’ve totally convinced me to read Bookworm. I love the anime anyway but you talking about it makes me want to get more Myne/Rosemyne.

    She gets completely blindsided when someone who has all the reason in the world to hate her schemes against her and doesn’t seem to have a personal motivation for what she does other than to fulfill her daily evil quota

    And THAT is why I nominated Vicius for #1 villain this year! Because before she WAS one dimensional and seemed evil just for the sake of being evil and to foil the MC. However in Book 11 a lot of her machinations and motivations are revealed. And yes, she’s still awful self-obsessed evil garbage but now you can see how all her plotting meshed together for her goals (yes, she has actual goals!). Granted, it’s maybe not the most mind-blowing reveal ever but it was still a big leap for her character development.

    No, compare this with my, clearly far superior pick!

    How you worded this… perfection.

    he is the hero of the story if you only shift the POV by a fraction of a degree.

    Okay, I admit I like that. I think you might have convinced me.

    ps.: Fran & Teacher is a good pick

    Right?!

    Granted, not Clarissa & Hartmut levels of good, but respectable nonetheless.

    PPPSSSSSHHHHFFFFFFTTTT… look, I’ll read it, okay. I promise. But you’ll never convince me Fran & Teacher aren’t #1 ;)

      Only fair. I’ll put Failure Frame back in my PTR list when Vicious gets some depth in vol 11.

      Don’t read it for Clarissa & Hartmut they are small fry. The best duo is clearly Schwartz and Weiss. Don’t be swayed by their lies!

      Vote Schwartz and Weiss for best duo!
