Thanks for the news! I just bought her first photobook a few weeks ago.
This one will be interesting, and apparently more mature... |

| I'm planning on pre-ordering it from Amazon Japan once I get my paycheck. I looked up the total amount of the item + international express shipping charges[¥3000], which is the only shipping method available for outside Japan addresses, I think, and the total price came up to ¥5,667. Can someone please tell me how much that is in US Dollars? I'm guessing around $60. |

It's actually about $49 US.
So, not *as* bad.
I hadn't realized that Amazon had decided to only offer express shipping for international orders.
I never had a problem with the economy shipping in the past--it was safe enough, imo.
Argh.
Well, hopefully other, more reasonably-priced options will surface.  |

The cover is really beautiful. <3 And her photos look quite professional.
So she can sing and write lyrics and music already, and now she can be a photographer too? She's amazing! <3 |
