Welcome! I hope you have fun with it 
Yesterday I read for around 2 hours. 9 episodes.
Left off at Day 24.
Time to go back reading for today.
July 2
Finished one more chapter. The newly introduced character Athena/Atena seems somewhat mysterious so far but it looks like she’s actually not a purposely mysterious character but more of a clumsy and absentminded one. Whichever it is, I’d like to see more of her in future chapters.

Today’s reading: p. 98-108 of Chap. 31 of よつばと！
When doing the slow reading with lookups, I generally read until I’ve looked up 10 vocab items. There are only a few pages left in the chapter and I might normally have pushed on, but I’m not going to have a lot of reading time tomorrow so I’ll save them until then.

Yesterday, I was able to read a page in the book from 102-103. Only issue is, I fell asleep while doing so, losing my spot in the book. I am once again grateful to this challenge, because I don’t often keep track of my page numbers so well, so this made it easy for me to find my spot again. Looking forward to reading more today!
Finished Chapter 56, Chapter 57, Chapter 58 and Chapter 59 of Mirai Nikki 
With this, I finished the whole manga.
Only took 23 days to read the whole thing. The first manga I read, Death Note, took me 6 months to finish, and it was around the same size, so it’s good to see that I’ve improved.
And, finished two chapters of the new manga I started reading, 花子と寓話のテラー I’ve decided that I want to challenge myself a bit more and this time, I’m going into this completely blind. I’ve never heard of this manga and I don’t know what to expect. It seems interesting so far though.
I read 7 episodes for a total of 3:21 min.
Tomorrow I won’t panic that I lost access to satori reader. That hiccup got to me and was feeling stressed before work. Glad that I can improve with proper explanations.

I read a guys report about his experience during a strong earthquake. That was pretty scary.
Read two pages No Game no Life volume 1 novel. It’s very hard but I find the book series interesting. It’s not boring at all. I started from the beginning once again and already reached the part I stopped at.
Dumb question how do you buy kindle books from amazon japan? I already added a working japanese address with a japanese phone number. I use a vpn set to japan and they still don’t let me buy kindle books.
I thiiiink you need to make a separate account for amazon jp only. That’s how it was for getting audible jp to work.

Minimal amount of reading during these two days. I have higher hopes for the upcoming couple of days…
Is there a name for this process of repeatedly restarting a book and going further each time? Luke Ranieri recently made a video on it wherein he called it “Pyramid Rereading”, but I’m curious if there’s an established term
I’ll post a more detailed home thread eventually- was debating entering this time and decided in favour in the end.
For now I’m mostly doing Persona 3, which double dips for reading and listening, but do have plans to read more novels too.
