I’ve been so so tired this week. I don’t usually nap after work (even if I do tend to doze off while reading tho), but Friday was really bad. Had a sore throat too. Only sleep was the medicine at that point. No reading done.

Sore throat healed after long hours of sleep. Very good. Tiny read in the morning. After that I started an English book (reread of Illuminae, it has genius storytelling).

Sunday morning: I’m so not into reading mood. When I only have book club book that I’m reading, it feels like a chore. So I really need to find another book to read as well. Same principle as with drawing practice. Can’t just draw for practice by doing drawing lessons, should preferably also draw for fun.

・本好きの下剋上 番外編2(0% → 7%) // Time today: 51m. Total: 51m

Sunday evening: Finally started reading the newly released Honzuki Spinoff book 2. Feels very comfortable. Tho I had to look up three yojijukugo just in the prologue :laughing: 多すぎでしょう。Was reading at a good pace until I sat down again reading while having dinner. And then my eyes hurt, contacts went dry. I wonder how many hours this book is going to take me. It’s 400 pages. 12h? Between 11-15h probably.

Btw, I realize I miss the characters in this universe. I wish the main story continued instead of this spinoff story. Or for the main story to continue somehow. I miss having ローゼマイン as the main character. I want more of where the main story left off TuT

My condition has been weird the last four weeks and especially worse during the last week, but being able to read books and write updates again now, I guess I’m somewhat back to normal again. Just have to make sure I get plenty of sleep and drink tons of water :watermelon: :zzz: :warning:
