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
