I finished my first 吉屋信子 book 小さき花々 花物語 | L39 and am 41% through 花物語 上 | L39 - both of which feel like I’m accomplishing something 
It was interesting finishing my first short stories collection. I’m torn btwn わすれなぐさ | L37 and 屋根裏の二処女 吉屋信子乙女小説コレクション (吉屋信子乙女小説コレクション 2) | L30?? next - but I’ll probly go with the former. I should finish up some easier stuff first though, just as a break.
Otherwise, I’m starting up pen pal’ing with a few ppl - which should be a very pleasant challenge.
I put my jpdb definitions back to JP-JP, and that actually feels comfortable now - though I do occasionally double-check the English. For Kindle lookups, I still have it on JP-EN, b/c it’s less disruptive. I also turned on kanji reviews, which has been helpful I think. Too many reviews piled up at the moment, but what else is new. Worst case I’ll either abandon, or delete some decks… in a sense it doesn’t really matter - it’s just a number. I’ve been keeping up w/ the names deck consistently 2. Really glad I’m doing that at a slow pace (3 new cards a day)
薬屋のひとりごと is going slow and steady… I’m really thinking of asking to do conversation instead in lessons though - since most of it is really stuff I can get on my own, and I’m finding I enjoy conversation in lessons.
Made my April 2025 Listening Challenge - #2 by 暁のルナ goal, though I still have a few hours left for my sub-goal of 20 hrs of non-anime content. I might use the マリみて drama cds for that… but I’m more concerned with making a large dent in my Now Reading list at this point though - especially given current and potentially upcoming book clubs.. マリみて rewatch has been going well, but I definitely still need to check the subs at times
