City Life

Book Guide

By AbsolRoot

Reading books provides various bonus effects. Among them, unlocking dating spots and earning extra cash from part-time jobs are particularly useful.

As you go about your daily life in the city, you may encounter an event where you read a book on the subway while commuting to school.

This event does not consume distinct Action Points, so it is recommended to have books on hand in advance.

You can also read books at home by spending Action Points. If you want to unlock features quickly, try reading more books at home.

You can purchase books at bookstores in Shibuya, Shinjuku, and Jinbocho.
Below is a list of obtainable books, their prices, and effects.
