I finished my first book in Spanish!

I was really excited because last week I finished my first book in Spanish.  It was El Alquimista - The Alchemist.  That book was a huge influence in me coming here in the first place, so it was fitting that it was the first one I finished in Spanish.  I think the fact that I had read it so many times already really helped my comprehension. 

Now I have started reading Jonathon Livingston Seagull in Spanish and it feels a lot harder.  Maybe I just need to get into it.
