Hi Solfrid,
I changed my Croatian challenge to a Major Challenge with conversation and writing and
I'm doing the same for Italian.

I've been very neglectful about tracking my French reading and TV lately, because I've been indulging in lots of news articles, websites and channel-surfing on TV. And I have several half-read books that I need to record with the Twitterbot.
Hmm. Will figure out a solution…

三毛猫ホームズの推理(The Deductions of Holmes, the Tortoiseshell Cat)
Holmes the Tortoiseshell Cat solves the mysteries in this light-hearted mystery series by Jiro Akagawa. This is the first book in the series and involves a number of murders at a girls’ college. The girls are involved in prostitution and so there is also the mystery of the prostitution ring. An additional murder, in a lock room no less, and a bit of corruption are thrown into the mix as well. But don’t worry; Holmes figures it out in the end.
The writing style is very light and straightforward making this an ideal book for a learner trying to break into reading real Japanese “literature.”
As usual, see my blog (link under my name) or my TAC log for more in depth reviews.

Cristina, you wrote in the update that i have 554 movies. But I "only" have 303 :)) I have 50 rather than 100 in Polish, for example.
Even my total goal for movies is just 550 :D With 100 in Italian (done), Portuguese, Danish, Romanian and 50 in Polish (done), German and Belarusian.

Ok, I'll fix it. I had to guess at the amount where you had the stars, and math was never my strong suit
anyway :-)

Look at the very first page of this thread, and you would get most of the information you need. Basically you
register in this thread, and I really recommend that you register on the Twitter bot, and then you just start
reading and watching films, series or whatever catches your fancy. You decide what to read and watch
according to your interest and available resources. Make sure that you chose a language in which you are at
B1 or below, if you are B2 or better, you must go to the Advanced Super Challenge ( see the total Super
Challenge reference thread which is sticky).
