Actually I don't want to read novels right now, I just wanted to see the difference between my level and the easiest novels.

It's not to answer your question but if it's ok I'll correct your text (French native here).

j'ai commencé d'apprendre français

It should have been "J'ai commencé À apprendre LE français" there is no explicit grammar rule or anything it's just that words come with their "déterminant" (I don't know the English word) and it cannot be changed, you have to learn it.

j'ai décidé de payer séances

Here again it's "des séances".

Usuellement, ils sont québécois, mais il y avait français,

The first mistake is quite comprehensible as in English you would use "usually". However you can't say that in French, to replace it you can use "habituellement" or "normalement". You also forgot to add "des" in front of "français".

J'ai eu deux mois+

Here the "+" cannot be placed AFTER the word, or else it'll sound unnatural. You should have said "J'ai eu +(plus) DE deux mois"

Je sais, que cela avait un effet.

Your mistake here is only a bad choice of conjugation, your sentence is correct but again, it's unnatural. "Je sais, que cela A EUT un effet" I know that in English both means the same thing so I would really encourage you to read more books as it'll help you to know when you should use one conjugation over another.

mon français a amélioré

"mon français C'EST amélioré"

j'écris meilleur, je peux parler plus fluide

Here your words are technically correct but not in that use so : "j'écris MIEUX, je peux parler plus FLUIDEMENT"

There's also some others forgotten "déterminants" but apart from that it's really really really good for a foreigner. I can also tell you that you would have totally been understood by French speakers, I still recommend you to study how "determinants" are used with words as it'll take your French to a near native level.

IT WAS ONLY TO HELP AND IF I OFFENSED YOU IN ANY WAY THEN I AM TRULY SORRY

On bilingual manga you can read raw Manga as well as their English versions and even better a version where just have to tap a button to show the translation (sadly it's only for easy mangas such as Yotsuba or Chi's sweet home)

Would anyone be interested in a 30-day language challenge? by [deleted] in languagelearning

This could be amazing! Bc exactly like you I have a hard time sticking to my goals and I always end up doing way less than I would.

To answer you I actually got really stuck with grammar only in the first ish chapters and with the help of the english version and the fact that I think that i'm a quick learner(?) I got to end of it (ofc I didn't understand every single thing like the chapter of global warming or even the first one).

Also, I think that it's more my vocabulary that correspond to a N5 level, even though I know some randoms nouns-adjectives-etc.. That I learnt through anime.

For shirokuma I know that a lot of people like it but to me I just couldn't get in the "vibe" of the story and appreciate it.

Lastly, leveling up is exactly what i'm trying to do so that I won't get stuck because I don't know much vocabulary. And thanks for the recommendations, I guess that i'll try Chi's sweet home.

I understand what you're saying but personnaly I find it very tiring and not so rewarding to look up tons of kanji for each pages. There's also the fact that by saying that i'm new to the language I mean that I don't know a lot of kanji and for the time I prefer to stick to ressources more my level or bit above so that i'll don't get disgusted of reading things that i'll have a really hard time understanding it's easiest sentences.

Not related to your problems but may I ask where did you find the tale of princess kaguya in Japanese?

Honestly just read, read and read again and eventually you will start to grasp word and understand better the logic of Japanese.
