- 気になってる人が男じゃなかった about half of vol 1 - god, them….…......…
I was going to say please share if you find one, but too late! Just in time for me to do my reading though… 
19th april
bad day for concentration today, but managed about 13 pages of すきとも which lost me a bit tbh in those first few (having a fairly major time skip over a couple of sentences will do that to you) but i’m getting back into it i think.
today’s nhk article was this one, plus the entries on とかで and ところ in aDoIJG
words that stood out
皓々 - bright (esp. of the moon), broad and empty
諦念 - feeling of resignation, understanding and acceptance
ナイター - game under lights, night game (e.g. baseball)

クプルムの花嫁 Vol.4 (0-23%)

Three Kingdoms 2 reread (7-10/30) + Prologue (1/6)
Try reading on a tablet without knowing the translation first. Screen size is about speed and extensive style.

STEINS;GATE 比翼恋理のだーりん
Words of the day
- 蛍雪の功 = fruit of diligent study. And then I’ve found 蛍の光 (窓の雪).
- 工場 = workshop. Smaller products compared to 工場. With explanation as well as how to spell, in context.
- 戦々恐々 = trembling with fear. Also written 戦々兢々. From 戦慄、恐れ戦く.
- 優に = easily; well over. Easily satisfy for the threshold amount.
- おくびにも出さない = without showing any slightest hint of. What doesn’t even come out is おくび = げっぷ = burping; belching. Too much gas in stomach.

Exciting with the new picks of the BBC and IMC starting now! But I won’t be home for most of the weekend, so we’ll see when I can start them.

・ 今はもうない - Switch Back (35% → 36%)
Just a tiny read. There’s a scene I can’t visualize even after reading it probably 4-5 times now, irasuto hoshii n da kedo. Also I’m not reading much at home anymore, what am I going to do now that I’m no longer taking the train…? 
I want to join this challenge. Of course I still didn’t miss reading for even one day this year. Right now I’m still super busy with classes, usually I’m tired and just read manga magazines every day.
Finally I reached a point where I can actually read faster than I buy new things.

I “read” this week’s 葬送のフリーレン pages, and by “read” I mean I said a lot of sounds out loud and looked at the vocab sheet a lot but comprehension is another matter altogether. And that is a problem for tomorrow me.

I’ve made it one-third of the way through DoBJG 
On the other head, I’m repeteadly falling asleep while reading, so I didn’t even finish the first chapter today.

Finished up the volume 1 ゆるキャンプ manga. Or I guess ゆるキャン△ since the logo and marketing likes to replace the プ with a △. But my IME won’t suggest triangle emoji, so I’m going to stick with ゆるキャンプ 
EDIT: Also ended up reading this week’s 葬送のフリーレン today too.
What a coincidence! I did finish the first volume already, but maybe I’ll try to lurk.

The way books are printed, the page would be too cluttered. That’s why some authors use footnotes instead.
I went to the park again to read because it was sunny out. I read 3 NHK News Web Easy articles, 2 level 2 stories and 5 level 1 stories.

Read:
- とんがり帽子のアトリエ half of ch1 - this week’s section with the IMC! I am already just in love with this, it’s so pretty. Like @Akashelia mentioned it’s crazy how long it took to finally get a club reading this (although… it’s gonna be pretty hard to not read ahead on this for me, but i’ll try my best
) - 気になってる人が男じゃなかった some more of vol 1
The secret is to overload yourself with other things to read
