Reading speed at A2

Reading speed at A2

Im really proud of myself to be at a vocabulary level where I can sit down and (slowly) read this book my dutch boyfriend got for me during the holidays. I was just curious how slow you guys were when you first started really immersing yourself in reading? I know theres not any inheritly "wrong" way to learn a language, but I feel like I'm moving way too slow and some others insight would help me feel better haha πŸ˜….

In my first language I am an extremely advanced and quick reader - always have been. Which may be why I'm being harder on myself for being slow lol. I've spent around 30 minutes on one page - which, granted, I'm rereading multiple times to ensure im properly comprehending and translating. I'm also writing notes and documenting new vocabulary I may not know.

Anyways, just out of curiousity, how slow were/are you guys at reading in your target language in the A levels, specifically A2? 🫢🏻
