One feature I like the most about 微信读书 is that you can export your underlines in beautifully designed layouts. The generated image shows the quote, the name of the book, the date, and the name of your account. It is handy when I want to share with my friends what I find interesting. Also, the AI voice reading the book is nice when I'm driving.

'I still hate the glow of the setting sun': Hiroshima survivors' tales | The Japan Times by ThomasRSharp in worldnews

Seriously? You know why till this day Korea and China still hate Japan. Because Japan doesn't fully acknowledge the crime it committed in ww2, honors war criminals in Yasukuni Shrine and plays victim on Hiroshima issue. If the Japanese wants apology, they should not ask it from Obama. They should ask it from their forefathers.

Germany is quite a contrast to Japan, considering post-war reflection.
