I actually sped-read all 6 volumes in the past few days. Correct me if I wrong and in case I missed out some development during speed-reading.

Spoiler for LN vol 4 to vol 7 bridge, and vol 6:

The curse mentioned on vol 7's 294-295, was it the one in vol 4 when Kuroneko kissed Kyousuke before he went to America right? In vol 6, I think I remembered Kyousuke asking Kirino over the phone "ore no koto suki?" while he was searching for Lia. Was that question ever resolved (and that I actually missed it)? Interestingly, in vol 6, while Lia was playing catch-me-if-you can with Kyousuke, it reminded him that he used to do that with Kirino when younger.

@karice67: the development didn't take place abruptly, they have been ongoing over all the volumes. so I suggest for you to read 2-6 first, or you might get a lot of confusion when you jump straight to 7.

And smart people usually can keep up studies without studying, so her study time at home might be minimal, only for doing the homeworks,

news on 7th, it will be out on 10th this month only 9 days left

Spoiler for Kirino athletic abilities:

fyi, she is a star athlete. that's how she ended in America.
