Teen paperback series, routinely castigated or ignored by Young
Adult librarians despite their popularity with young adults, should
be considered for inclusion in collections alongside other genres.
In Serious about Series, 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. Makowski's book is an insightful
evaluation of over fifty popular series, and includes 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, allowing librarians
to develop "in-house" bibliographies of favorite teen series
titles, making this a truly useful reference source for the young
adult librarian.
