I finished 3 chapters from コナの大冒険!
The voice actor is doing a great job with Kona’s narration haha. Now that Kona’s backstory came to an end, I hope the sad parts are all over.
I’m starting to notice that my reading speed might have increased just a little bit? Usually I’d feel so mentally exhausted after reading a few pages in Japanese, but now I don’t feel that tired.
I bought another manga today. I couldn’t resist (plus I had too many coins on Bookwalker 
). This one is a Yuri called - and we know enough by now to ignore bizzare titles - 親がうるさいので後輩と偽装結婚してみた。Otherwise known as “I Married My Best Friend To Shut My Parents Up”. I don’t remember if someone already talked about this, but I had the translated version with me and I just wanted to read a Yuri in Japanese even if it was a little advanced. I’m hoping to read it after I finish the first volume of よつばと.
