duckprintspress"I'll wait a day or three to finish the extras," I said. "I'll savor the last few chapters," I said. Well, you can see how well THAT worked out.
I realized I kinda goofed up in a way, since I've decided NOT to treat "all books in a series" as "the same book," which means that reading Volume 2 of a book by Shisi isn't a new-to-me author, reading Volume 1 of a book by Shisi is, and I used Vol 1 on TBR (and Vol 2 isn't really on my TBR, since it only just came out, I was saving vol. 1 and read them both when I got volume 2). So, perhaps it's not the best match to a square, but oh well, screw it. I probably could have justified putting 2 in the TBR square (it was literally on the pile, for about two weeks - it's even in a picture I took in mid-January of my TBR) so...whatever, between the two, they cover those squares. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
ANYWAY. Before I started Little Mushroom the question was, "read something new" (as in, Little Mushroom) or "reread the volumes of MXTX books I've got waiting." So now that I'm done with Little Mushroom, it's onward to read the three volumes of TGCF I've been stalling on because I hate the (original) Book 2 extended flashback so much that it's a huge slog to get through. I've given myself permission to, if not skim, at least not read it super carefully. I remember what happens and I don't like it and I want to get back to (original) Book 3.....!!!!
