I have just remembered something abut reading. If you read books that are translations into English, you will find they are slightly easier to read than those originally written in English. They are good to start you off, as they tend to be less idiomatic. Then later you progress to those written in English. That way, you are soon reading for pleasure, not just for language learning.
I found this out by accident when i was studying German.
What do you think would go well with coasters like this?
