  22. Doctor Who: Circuit Breaker #1 by Dulse M. Montaya
  1. Due to length, the last three Dungeon Crawler Carl books could count as 2x, but for now I will leave them as single novels for the written version [the audiobooks take a lot of time, so might be upgraded to 2x on the Re-Listen]. ↩︎
  2. Pre-Print Edition from Patreon. ↩︎
  3. To clarify: After finishing the books I did go back and start listening to the audio-book version [albeit slowly]. ↩︎
  4. Just KonoSuba, hereafter. ↩︎
  5. These novels are meant to each represent something like 90 minute British Mystery episode (or a pair) and are somewhere between a novella and a short novel. Right now I’ll put them here because they feel about the same as the light novels also in this category. ↩︎
  6. This kicked off a heavy manga reading streak, as should be obvious. ↩︎
  7. Heh, yes, I read #0 at the end which was a mistake. ↩︎
  8. Chapters vary a lot in length I’ll just count them as halves every 2 or 3 chapters to try and balance 6 units per 1 tankōbon. ↩︎
