Are the books worth it?

Depends. You collect or like hentai then yes. 20$ isn't alot.

I asked this question about a year ago myself when I first wanted to buy their books, especially since I am from the UK I have to get it from up1, so I pay a bit extra, roughly £19 per book. I bought my first book and was really surprised, the paper quality is really high, far superior then your average manga or light novel book you will find anywhere else, very silky and smooth feeling and thick, and the printing is very fine and sharp so you're always going to see every bit of detail. The jacket of the books are also very high quality and nicely colored. Less than a year on and 30 books owned I can say I have not regretted any of my purchases, the books look very pleasing and are of top standard compared to anything else I own, and I own a lot of books.

Buy your first book if you can afford the 20 dollars, and make your decision, worst case you don't like it and you are 20 bucks short :)

also check out the post FAKKU Books: FAQ, there is some interesting posts on there about how they check their books before printing for color correction and proofing which is interesting, it really shows how much work they put into their books.

Assuming the content of a book appeals to you, then yes, I think they are definitely worth it. It's already been mentioned, but the quality of the physical copies is amazing. I'm really happy with my physical collection of FAKKU books. I also love that buying a copy of a physical book from FAKKU directly gives you a DRM-free digital copy of the book, which is very wonderful to have, and the quality of the digital copy is also great.

I should also mention that the FAKKU Books version of some of the subscription chapters have updated art.

Yeah the books are worth it, all the Fakku books are amazing quality.

Well if u live in Australia like me then after postage and conversion rate it ends up being the same price as a new video game! Hardly seems worth it but I still bought 1 couldn't help myself. Would have bought way more tho if it were cheaper

Do you like books in general? Fakku produces the best quality books that I have seen so far. Some Kickstarters might have similar quality, but those rarely come up. The books have a good weight paper, the color is good, the slipcovers are sturdy and well produced.
