Despite being popular with their target audience, teenage paperback series are often ignored by librarians. In this text, Silk Makowski argues that they should be included in collections alongside other genres.
An insightful evaluation of over fifty popular series with an introduction that analyzes the teen series paperback genre and its significance for both teen reading practices and library services. Hundreds of titles are annotated in the book. Makowksi provides distinct criteria by which these series can be judged for quality within their genre, and emphasizes them as an inexpensive way to fulfill patron needs and increase circulation by bringing young people, often considered ''non-readers,'' into the library.
