Norwegian : I managed to repeat scrupulously one assimil lesson a day so I am now on lesson 20. This
hasn't proved hard at all since I had already covered the 50 first lessons of Le Norvégien Sans Peine a few
years back.
The main obstacle is that it might become a bit dull. But I 'm glad I've found an easy reader in Norwegian on
amazon kindle. It´s called " learn Norwegian with parallel text" and , let´s be clear, it is no literature, but
enough for me at that point to make some progress without getting bored, and for the price of a magazine
(4.13€!) I think it' s good value for money. I'd say the level is A2.

I also managed to complete the January challenge.
For further motivation, I treated myself to a Norwegian paperback edition of Politi by Jo Nesbø. Even though
I have already read it in French, it is waaay out of my league , even with a good dictionary it takes 30 minutes
per page!

German :
I listened to 4 or 5 Nachrichten podcasts on Deutsche Welle, found the website Deutsch Im Blick mentioned
in the team thread very useful. I also started reading Die Wand by Marlen Haushofer, and the good surprise
is that it is manageable so far (with the help of a dictionary but still). This book had been on my wish list for at
least 3 years ! It´s about a woman who one day finds herself surrounded by an invisible wall.

Super challenge
I have finished Il Terrore Viene per Posta by Agatha Christie , so that makes 1521 pages or 30 books ( but 5
real books only :)
