📚📚 Read every day challenge - Winter 2022 ☃❄

Yesterday I read 大聖堂 (and almost finished this week’s assignment! I could not put the book down because it was so gripping).

Today I decided to change my reading plans a bit. There is a Japan Film Festival coming up (Feb 14 - 27) and they show the movie しあわせのパン. I bought the book a few years ago by accident (I mistook its author 三島 有紀子 (Mishima Yukiko) for the author 三島 由紀夫 (Mishima Yukio) whose books I was looking for, and I grabbed it in passing at BookOff without really looking into it :woman_facepalming:) but anyways! This time I want to read the book before watching the movie :grin: The book has 200 pages, that means if I read at least 10 pages per day, I can make it in time, at least for the last day of the festival. The good thing is that I own a paper copy so I can make this my sauna book as well :+1:

I started reading it this morning and read the (short) prologue. It’s quite an easy read so far, and I think this challenge should be doable.

EDIT: I added a thread for the film festival, so we can maybe discuss some of the movies we watch, and give recommendations.
