It is very funny to have a book that was once so highly lauded now being "the skippable one."
I'm sure I heard of it around the time that Yuri on Ice was big. I did really like YoI, but the fandom was... well, it was what it was.
At the same time, it's kind of a compliment in a way that a book that was at the time SO well-liked and hyped now isn't even considered the best of the series. I'll have to give the series a try.
Hopefully the show causes a resurgence for the fandom!
