Not terribly compelling, but level-balanced appropriately

Many of the stories are quite dull and some either don't have an ending of have very weird morals, but as someone who baaarely passed N3 almost five years ago at this point, it was easy enough to get back into these and read them with only a few new words to look up.

My method was to read through the book once without stopping to look up new words specifically, using the english translation if I got stuck. I am now on my second read-through using anki to add cards for every word and grammar point I did not know off the top of my head. I expect I should be done by the end of the week if not sooner and can move on to something a bit more compelling.

The formatting on kindle is alright, but I really wish you could turn off the furigana.
