Dumb question: for 4. Read 4 books that are in-between novellas of series. The books have to have the .5 in their place in the series

Would I count a #0 in a series as an in between or a regular entry? It's not a .5 but it's a prequel not needed to understand the actual series, kind of like an in-between would be.
