Maar voor mensen die het wel leuk vinden, vind ik het wel leuk dat er voor nu al een top 10 collectie is. Maar dat er ook binnenkort nog een nieuwe collectie komt. Ik denk wel dat het dan wel eens een leuk ideetje is om een kortverhaal te lezen, en je gedachten eens te verzetten. Maar ik blijf erbij dat een langverhaal mij toch iets beter ligt.
