Final update! I did manage to read a little bit more last night and some this morning as well, for a grand total of 4 hours and 55 minutes, amounting to 163 pages. I finished the full three parts of 圭太とネコ石, so I’m very happy about that.
I ended up attempting 手ぶくろを買いに as well, which ended up being a lot harder than the graded readers I was reading, but I’ll finish it eventually. I’m just gonna go at a snail’s pace for that one.
