It took me longer than is completely reasonable, but I finally read a real, proper, full length book in German. Yes, it's Harry Potter but come on, this is my second language and with 4 years of language classes in high school and 7 months of living here I've finally gotten to the point where I can pick up any book or print media and read it (rather slowly and occasionally with some vocab help) and comprehend it! This is very exciting for me folks!
