Abstract
I Talk You Talk Press is a small company that makes books for Extensive Reading (多読). Their books are not classic literature or non-fiction. Instead, they are mostly new stories about young people, mostly in Japan. Here are a few of the books in the English Lounge:
Women’s Konkatsu Tales – These are eight short stories about women dating and trying to get married in Japan. They are true stories, so you can understand them and relate to the women’s feelings.
A Homestay in Auckland – This is a story about a Japanese student studying in New Zealand. It has a lot of good vocabulary and phrases for studying abroad.
Haruna’s Story, Part 1 – This is a story about a young woman studying for the TOEIC so she can work in America. It is fiction, but I think it is easy to understand how Haruna feels.

Description
My two cents: Reading easy stories about Japan and young people’s culture is good for Extensive Reading. If you read about a foreign culture or fantasy story, it can be more difficult to follow.
