I finished 2 short chapters today. I've gone back to the parallel text as I think it's still helping me.

I was able to get to stage 3 today! I read the English, listened to the Spanish, and was able to follow it for 3 pages or so.

First off, it's working. Yay! I tried listening to the beginning of another audio book, and I was able to understand a surprising amount, maybe 20%. Today I just let the audio go, and didn't stop it once.

Got through Chapter 1 today, and started aligning chapter 2. The parallel text is so much better than the monolingual text. My listening is improving, and I can definitely pick out more words from the audio now than when I started. What I do now is skim the English quickly to get the gist of the story, then follow along with the Spanish, occasionally checking the English meanings of words but not stopping the audio.
