Question new releases at kobo

I'd like to see the new releases in English, but as I'm French, the kobo web site does only display French new releases (that I don't give a care). I tried to go on their web site without being connected, but it must recognize where I'm from as, whatever I do, all I got is the French new releases. Please Kobo, let me see what's new in English speaking book world

It's a bit extreme but while waiting for them to eventually (hopefully) add an option allowing that, you can probably use a proxy and try a US ip address to get the English version of the site.

If I knew how to... But I keep thinking Kobo website SHOULD let us know what's new within English books and not only French ones... Don't put frontiers where there's no need Yes some French people CAN understand and read English (and furthermore like it)

Don't be in such a hurry to get your hands on English speaking books @ Kobo. Chance is you might not be allowed to purchase them, what with geographical restrictions and all that.

Don't charge my soul, please, let me some hope (I hate geographical restrictions )

I know the feeling. And I'm in the same boat as you or to be precise, neighboring boat ...
Il se trouves que je suis Belge
Though over here I can see books both in English and French ... try entering a book title straight in English in the search field.

In any case if you decided to buy some English books off Kobo, let me know if you managed to get them. Who knows since prices are listed in Euros, it would be kind of weird if we could not go through with the purchase.

I have definitely bought some English books, both directly with my reader and through the website.
