The First Thoughts (Obsessive Completist):
The Tiffany Aching books are out in standard format paperback! With brand new Kidby covers!

The Second Thoughts (Prudent Scot):
But I already have the Tiffany books, don't I? In hardback. Why do I need to buy them again?

Obsessive Completist:
Because they'll match the rest of my collection!

Prudent Scot:
Is that really worth buying three books I already own? I'm running short of bookshelf space, y'know.

Obsessive Completist:
That's a good point. So let's donate those bulky hardbacks to charity, or my neice or something!

Prudent Scot:
It still seems like a waste to spend money on something I already own. And the current Tiffany books match The Amazing Maurice. Which isn't coming out in a new Kidby paperback, before I start.

Obsessive Completist:
Well, not yet. And they don't, really. The first two do, sort of, but Wintersmith is a standard-sized hardback, not the mini-hardback of the other YA Discworlds. In fact, I've never been happy with the hardback of Wintersmith, because it doesn't match the others. And I Shall Wear Midnight will only be available with a new-style cover, so it'll match even less.

Prudent Scot:
I've already made up my mind, haven't I?

Obsessive Completist
Not really. If I had, I wouldn't be arguing about it with myself, would I? But...

Prudent Scot
...But even though I haven't officially made up my mind, I'm going to do it?

Obsessive Completist
Probably, yeah.

Prudent Scot
Fine. At least I got a hearing this time, unlike every visit to the comics shop...
