Nice to hear that you are making progress! And I love to hear that you paused reading and moved on to something else for a bit; I've heard that it can be quite a common problem that people can't "pause" or "come back to the book later" and forcefully push themselves through a book they started, which can ruin a good book.

For L'étranger I am only still halfway in the first chapter so I'm not too worried about ruining the book. I am happy to just understand what I am reading. I went back to the kit ember book after more than a month, the story came back easily but it is a graded reader and relatively simple content.
