• Ranking Drama!

  1. Everyone’s a Critic: This book comes at number one because of the major shift in character development and aspirations for the series’ protagonist, Bryan Stark. And it’s only the second episode! Bryan has always wanted to be an actor, not on Meryl Streap-level, that’s his best friend’s Sam’s perogative but he is fine with…

• Ranking Gallagher Girls

  1. Out of Sight, Out of Time: One of the things I most admire about this series is that it allows Cammie and the other characters grow, maturing with the plots growing increasingly dark as they grow. This would be one of those instances as Cammie has gone on the run from the terrorist organization,…

• Ranking Finishing School

  1. Etiquette & Espionage: Now I’ll admit maybe this series would have been more enjoyable to me if I had read the Parasoul Protectorate first, I mean I was a bit confused that this was steampunk London and vampires/werewolves exist? It was all a surprise but that’s why the first book in the series gets…

• Ranking Fairygodmother Academy

  1. Kerka’s Book. Kerka is the latest in the line of her family to undergo the journey to Aventurine and wield the Kalis sticks. She’s thrilled as it is a family honor but that adventure is dimmed by the recent loss of her mother and the distance between her and her sisters. In fact, her…

• Ranking The Hollywood Sisters

  1. Backstage Pass: Again maybe it’s nostalgia, maybe it’s the rose-tinted glasses but whenever I read this, I fall in love with it all over again so this gets the number one spot. The wit, the fun, the inadverted celebrity jinx Jessica brings to all the guest stars. This was as an excellent introduction into…

• Ranking Secrets of My Hollywood Life

  Family Affair: This is number one to me, not only in that we get more insight to Kaitlin’s day to day tv show life. But also for the biggest surprise so far in the book series. Kaitlin and Skylar team up against a bigger enemy. The young upstart, Alexis Holdon who’s sweetheart next door personality…

• Ranking The Rajes

  Dev brings a new spin to Austen’s famous works with her Rajes series, focusing on a formerly royal family settled in California as the hard-working new generation navigate social class nuances, chasing their dreams amid family pressures and expectations and of course, find love. For as Dev wrote in her author’s note for The Emma…

• Ranking the Women Who Dare

  1. Wild Rain: Jenkins’ admits this is her first book with a cinnamon roll hero and as someone who has a weakness for that kind of man, this one comes first as Garret’s kind ways soothes the independent (and hurt) spirit of Spring Lee when he comes to her small Wyoming town of Paradise. This…

• Ranking W.I.T.C.H. Arcs

  Yes, W.I.T.C.H. the arguably bit darker, more convulated rival to Winx Club. I enjoyed this one just as much especially the second season of the tv show that was unfortunately cut too soon. At least there’s plenty of comics to enjoy. I also know there’s eleven arcs, but the US has only released the first…

• Ranking A:TLA comics

  The Search: As I’m sure many would agree, The Search put the Gaang on an adventure many longed to see in finding out whatever happened to Ursa? Well, I heartily enjoyed it. Not only for answering this question but giving deeper insight to the dysfunction of the Fire Nation Royal Marriage as well as its…
