Now that I've got the passive phase of Assimil, half of an active phase, and 11 lessons of French in Action under my belt the HP books are much more readable, although I still come across a lot of unknown words, phrases, and sometimes entire paragraphs.....
....With HP, I'm actually interested in the material and I really enjoy trying to puzzle out the sentence grammar/meaning. I also listen to the audio books to get a sense of the pronunciation.....
I read the first 3 HP books in 2015, some of my first non-graded books. I really enjoyed them. I started using an e-reader around that time, and really liked it for the ability to quickly do dictionary look-ups. A real time saver which helped me keep the flow of the books going while satisfying my need to lookup all or most unknown words. I'm not sure if you are using one, but it really helps.
Looking back, I recall really hating the narrator in the first two books due to the pace he read, and the voices he portrayed, along with the funny sounds. Or was it just the first book? I may not be recalling correctly, as it's been awhile and my my audio files are on an archive disk not accessible right now. The third book, the narration style changed a lot and it was much easier to understand, and certainly more enjoyable. Which in the series did you listen to?
