Record main novels, optional works, format, completion date and one spoiler-free note. Keep the plan simple enough to maintain and export it before clearing browser data.

Start with the purpose

Record main novels, optional works, format, completion date and one spoiler-free note. Keep the plan simple enough to maintain and export it before clearing browser data.

A practical workflow

  1. Confirm the official title list.
  2. Mark main novels and optional works.
  3. Check your preferred format for every volume.
  4. Plan only the next two or three entries.
  5. Reassess cost, availability and enjoyment before continuing.

Avoid false economy

A discounted box set is not a bargain if the series is a poor fit. Sample first, then decide what deserves shelf space.
