I also believe, and I cannot find the thread - perhaps it was part of the purged thread - that we as a group had talked about the order of the books we reading be slightly altered in the case of a trilogy.
Like with The Han Solo Trilogy - I believe we are skipping TEB novelization until after we read the last Han Solo book.
With other trilogies in the future, we may or may not be doing that - not sure if that is a hard and fast rule, or Arnie is taking it in a case by case basis.
