I am trying to learn French through the usual apps, it seems to be going okay.

I am also trying to get into deeper reading where I spend a lot more time on reading literature deliberately with focus (I don't know if that is the right way to describe it).

I think there was a link submitted here a while ago which triggered it, and I realised I read in a very shallow but fast manner just to finish books. So I've been trying to read more consciously. Reading The Brothers Karamazov at the moment.

I tried learning French too but then gave up. How are you keeping up with the learning?

I mostly use duolingo and lingodeer together. I've found that just working on it twenty minutes a day keeps it interesting.
