Island, Island and more Island More than 10.000 characters today. In a normal book with 400 characters per page, that’s more than 25 pages in a day. There’s no way I could read that much in a normal book in a day, but with this VN it’s doable (given enough time). Love it!
Another two chapters of スマッシュ. This is like the perfect level in terms of using loads and loads of vocab I already know, but I probably did a lot of climbing to get here. (文字:39,865/59,396 - 約4千字)
Island as always, 5000 characters today. In hindsight, it was probably not the best idea to pick a looooong VN as my first VN, and start it when I was on level 5 or so!
Oh well, I’m having so much fun with it, so it doesn’t matter that it’s too difficult for me. It’s doing wonders for my reading abilities, which was my goal all along!
A few chapters of スマッシュ、quite near the end now. This has been a good read for confidence though not the most interesting kid’s book I’ve read to date, I think (probably still goes to 四つ子 for me)
A very difficult, or at least wordy, chapter of ダン飯 because everyone was locked in a room and strategising on how to get out, which meant not as much action.
Finished SR Human Japanese Extra and read another 3 episodes of Akiko’s American Foreign Exchange and will start the SR series, Nutshell Grammar tomorrow
Island (5000 characters) and Everlasting Flowers today too. The two VNs are very different from each other, but I like both of them. I’m not organized enough to read one thing to the end and then start another. Reading a little here and a little there suits me better!
Read a bit before getting up for work and a lot more in the evening.
Spoiler thoughts: ブリュンヒルデ is going to marry ジルヴェスター?? 0: wow. I did wonder why there were no mention of her potential partner of marriage, but to think it would play out like this… wow. She seems happy tho, it was her idea after all, so that’s good for her.
September 17th!
A chapter of からかい上手の高木さん today! Started Volume 20, which is the final volume, so thats a bit bittersweet!
September 18th!
Started reading ダンジョン飯 - and read half of the first chapter. It’s definitely too hard for me, but I’m going to see if I can stick it out until at least the end of the first volume. (Wish me luck )
September 19th!
Another chapter of からかい上手の高木さん - a day early for the offshoot club reading, but I had a very long day today so I needed something short and sweet to read
September 20th!
A chapter of 葬送のフリーレン - only one more left in this volume now!
September 21st!
Today I read the second half of Chapter 1 of ダンジョン飯.
I’m a little concerned about having to read a whole chapter next week - but if I can’t keep up with the club I’ll still be able to read it on my own at a slower pace if I want to.
Read another 3 episodes of SR Akiko’s American Foreign Exchange. Started on SR Nutshell grammar as planned (1 episode a day from now on until finished) & also decided to add a Tadoku free graded reader since I started to read them for the Autumn Readathon (will try & read one a day till I’ve read them all).
