Spy x Family Page 123 (59)
I've been reading the manga, English version Spy x Family for maybe almost two months.
Now I'm on page 123.
I read up to page 123.
Can I say either way?
Actually, there's no number of pages written in the book, but I found the page 105 written, so I counted pages from there to where I read.
It's difficult for me to read, but I've been really having fun.
I have a feeling to finish reading to the end, and maybe move on to the volume 2.
I found an interesting phrase "I couldn't fight my way out of a paper bag"
Is this phrase commonly used?
ここ二ヶ月くらい英語版のスパイファミリーを読んでいます。
今、123ぺーじです。
１２３ページまで読みました。
どっちの言い方も大丈夫ですか？
実は、本の中にページが書いてありませんが、でも105ページが書いてあるのを見つけて、そこから読んだとことまで数えました。
私にとって読むのは難しいけど、でもとっても楽しいです。
最後まで読んで、2巻に進みそうな気がします。

Spy x Family Page 123 (59)
I've been reading the manga, English version of the manga Spy x Family for maybe almosabout two months (or so).
"Maybe" isn't necessarily wrong in this case. It's just a bit awkward when written down—spoken, it would have been fine.
Now I'm on page 123.
I read up to page 123.
Can I say either way?
Yes, either sounds good!

"I couldn't fight my way out of a paper bag" is an interesting expression. I don't think I've heard of it. I guess it's an expression of one's own physical weakness or lack of fighting ability, maybe?
March 7, 2024
Thank you so much as always! I wanted to know if I should remember the phrase, but maybe I don't need to remember because everyone said it's uncommon😅 But good to know. Thank you.

Can I say it either way?
Yes, you can say it either way. But "I've read up to page 23" is better than "I read up to page 23" because it makes it clear that you're still reading the manga. If you say "I read up to page 23," it could either mean that you're done reading the manga or that you are still reading it.
Actually, there's no number of page are no page numbers written in the book, but I found the page 105 written except page 105, so I counted pages from there to where I read.

That's great you've read so much of it. About how many pages of Spy Family do you read per day (or per week)?
March 7, 2024
Thank you so much for your correction! I read 4 or 5 pages about twice a week. I want to read every day, but I have work, so I can't make enough time to read it.
However, it's really hard for me capital letters. Why you guys can read them easily?😅
March 8, 2024
Nice, 4 or 5 pages twice a week is still very good!
Haha, I think reading words in all capital letters might be more difficult for some native English speakers if they're not used to reading much. But it's easy for me. 😁

"the pages are not numbered" is more natural here.

I think reading comics or manga is a good way to practice reading. ^^ I want to read some manga in Japanese for practice, but perhaps the kanji is still too difficult for me so I'd have to choose a children's manga. 😂
March 7, 2024
Thank you so much as always! I agree. I like children's picture books as well. It's very cute and fun!

Both are ok, in the corrected manner

If you change this sentence’s “I” to “I’ve,” both this sentence and “Now I’m on page 123” work.

You used near-perfect grammar in this post. Thank you for sharing your reading experience with us!
March 7, 2024
Thank you so much for your correction! I've watched "A silent voice" on Netflix. I liked it.
And you have heard the phrase before on TV. That means it's not commonly used in real conversation. correct?
March 7, 2024
That’s right. It’s not commonly used in real conversation. That being said, since you just reminded me of the phrase, I plan on using for comedic effect the next time I’m talking about my inability to fight. 😂

I somehow forgot to proofread my own message. 😂
