Description
Can a Dream-Chasing Human and a Time-Displaced Dragon Forge a Bond in Modern Japan?
More than a year has passed since half-Japanese, half-American Yoshihiro Marlowe broke free of his controlling father and moved to Japan to pursue his dream of becoming a theater actor. But he still faces one daunting hurdle: his own terrible acting. After failing 99 auditions, he begins to question whether his dreams will remain just that—dreams.
Just as he’s on the cusp of giving up, Yoshihiro’s life takes a dramatic turn when he encounters Tiamat, a powerful dragon and goddess, who has been sealed away for several millennia. She embodies everything he doesn’t—she’s confident, powerful, and utterly clueless about modern life.
As Yoshihiro struggles with his own aspirations, he also takes on the challenge of helping Tiamat navigate the perplexing landscape of modern Japan. Can he leverage his newfound friendship to overcome his doubts? And can Tiamat resist the allure of anime and modern day conveniences, or will she succumb to temptation and become the first dragon NEET?
Join their journey in this slightly seductive slice-of-life harem romcom that blends mythical intrigue with the trials and tribulations of everyday life.
Warning: Dragon Girlfriends is rated 14+ for sexual imagery and suggestive dialogue.

This was a strong start to the How to Tame your Dragon Girlfriends series, it had what I was looking for in a light novel and worked overall as a story. The characters were fun and worked well together overall. I enjoyed the illustrations and how Brandon Varnell wrote this, I’m excited to read more in this series.
How to Tame Your Dragon Girlfriends was a good read. The book is about a normal man living in Japan with a dragon. It's similar to Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid (which this book happens to mention multiple times). The book leans more toward romance than that series though. I do think it could've done without the sexual content (there's a paragraph dedicated to how men love boobs), but that seems to be par for the course with light novels so I won't fault this book for it. As someone who usually reads sci-fi novels, this was a nice change of pace. I would recommend this book if you like lighthearted comedies with a bit of romance thrown in.
ARC COPY...Was surprised by the very westerner looking name at first, no offense! But read through with objectiveness and liked writer got the Japanese light novel/ harem style style and premise down to a tee...this writer knows what he's doing in the light novel fantasy harem genre!
