Tanoyaku, Toyoko Inn's in-room magazine (1,300,000 monthly readers) will feature an excerpt from Abby Denson's Cool Japan Guide in their August 2017 issue
"Heading to Japan soon? Or just want to reminisce about those halcyon days when you were wondering among the cherry blossoms with a can of chu-hai in hand? Whether you're heading out to Tokyo as an exchange student or planning the trip of a lifetime, we've got two amazing books from Tuttle Publishing to give away that give you an insight into one of the world's most fascinating countries."- Japan Crush
"Cool Japan Guide is everything you would expect from a Japan guide, but in graphic novel form. Visit Asakusa, eat at kaitenzushi, watch a kabuki show, get your otaku on in Akihabara. It's got some sound advice too, like beware the squat toilets and don't miss the surprisingly early last train." Introvert Japan
