German Reading Project: Die Tribute Von Panem by Suzanne Collins, chapter 23
I’m sort of fudging a bit here. I didn’t take Die Tribute on holiday with me because I wouldn’t have had a dictionary without bothering Spuggy every two minutes and it would have been more hassle than it was worth. … Continue reading

And I’m up to date! Hopefully I’m likely to stay up to date for a while, because I’m trying to edit another of my manuscripts this month, which means I’ll be slowing down a bit on the reading. Wish me … Continue reading

German Reading Project: Die Tribute Von Panem by Suzanne Collins, Chapters 16, 17 & 18
A threefor! Since my phone broke, it’s been harder to distract myself from reading on public transport, and I also noticed that if I finished chapter 18 I could finish off Teil 2 of the book, so I pushed on … Continue reading

German Reading Project: Die Tribute Von Panem by Suzanne Collins, chapters 14 & 15
Well, this little project suddenly feels a lot more urgent. So, Chapter 14/15 is the trackerjacker part, full of gross words, and also the Rue part, full of heartwarming words. Best words: Chapter 14: die Jägerwespe: trackerjacker. I… much prefer … Continue reading

German Reading Project: Die Tribute Von Panem by Suzanne Collins, Chapters 10 & 11
You’re probably sick of me by this point. Oh well! Just want to reiterate what a well-written character Katniss is. Lots of people claim to write flawed characters, especially in YA, but for me, Katniss is the undisputed Flawed Yet … Continue reading

German Reading Project: Die Tribute Von Panem by Suzanne Collins, Chapters 8 & 9
I’ve got to the stage where reading a single chapter isn’t taking me days and days anymore, and anyone who’s ever read The Hunger Games will know that there’s a tipping point where the story stops being merely compelling and … Continue reading

German Reading Project: Die Tribute Von Panem by Suzanne Collins, Chapter 7
Reading in a second language you’re not very good at yet is an intense experience. I wonder if this is what it was like to learn to read in English when I was young. I know I can’t learn to … Continue reading

German Reading Project: Die Tribute Von Panem by Suzanne Collins, Chapter 6
A pretty srs bsns chapter here, where Katniss first meets an Avox. It’s kind of tiring to have to follow her constant mistrust in a second language (what if Peeta is bluffing? What if he’s trying to undermine my self-confidence? … Continue reading
