**10th +11th august** [home post](https://community.wanikani.com/t/read-japanese-every-day-challenge-summer-2024/66293/33) well, i didn’t read any raven stratagem, oops. i’ll get back on it next week, if i don’t i’ll forget who everyone is 😅 but, i did do a fair bit more jp reading, cos cmoa (like bookwalker but more adult-leaning and usually easier to buy from) were running a 99% off coupon up to roughly 1000 yen so i was reading sample after sample trying to find something i wanted that i could get maximum value out of. (went with a beginner’s guide to shogi). ---

Finished off this week’s reading for 鋼. The first part of that was pretty tricky, but it got a bit easier towards the end. Another page down for the Bluelock light novel. Other than a couple of unknown words, this went well, found myself enjoying it and wanting to read more, so probably pick a bit more up after work today. And also yesterday the weather was super nice, so went and sat out and spent an hour reading through すみっコぐらし, which is a kid’s book containing two short stories. I debated starting another manga, but since I’m less confident with longer form writing styles, and conjuctions and what not, I decided on this instead, which should also help with the Bluelock book. ---

🔖 [Home post](https://community.wanikani.com/t/x/66293/21) // August 12 🏖 🍉 ・ **本好きの下剋上 21** (0% → 8.14%) | 16k characters (16 020 / 196k char.) Almost forgot to post. Book thoughts: シャルロッテ talking and giving accurate reports to her mom makes me feel like she’s more mature than her older brother. Meanwhile ハルトムート is a ローゼマイン maniac as always. Now that he is going to take フェルディナンド’s position as the 神官長, I know he’s supposed to support ローゼマイン, but… can he really support her? It’s different because he doesn’t know her backstory. フェルディナンド… I can’t believe he’s leaving 🥹 The illustration at the beginning of the book shows a moment between ローゼマイン and フェルディナンド and it looks like a farewell moment… やだよ > **Lookups (15)** > > | Word | Notes | > | --- | --- | > | 降ふり積つもる | | > | 仕掛しかけ人にん | | > | 失脚しっきゃく | | > | 日ひの目めを見みる | それまで知られていなかったものが世間に認められる | > | 皮算用かわざんよう | | > | 取とり付つく島しまもない | | > | 上うわっ面つら | | > | 確執かくしつ | | > | 節ふしがある | | > | 掛かかり切きり | | > | 10 | | > | 邪推じゃすい | | > | 隠かくれ蓑みの | | > | 増長ぞうちょう | | > | 角かどが立たつ | | > | 腕うでが鳴なる | | I feel like the amount of lookups is closely related to the x amount of k characters I’ve read, it’s kinda funny.
