The Secret Series Non-Spoiler Review:
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟/5 As you may already know from my reel, bookshelf post, or comments I make a lot on other posts, I absolutely love this series. Not only do I have a soft spot for it because it’s some of the books that got me into reading, but I reread it last year and they are objectively, fricking fantastic. My favorite thing about this series has and always will be the narrator/author (see second picture for example). Just like the sass and the jokes and the occasion defining of words in the footnotes: I cannot get enough. Like there’s another whole plot there (that - mini spoiler - ends up being tied into the main story). The characters are also amazing. Cass the young survivalist who plans for everything and Max-Earnest the puzzle-solver who is terrible at jokes but somehow still funny. The plot is so good in each book I can’t choose a favorite or least favorite of the bunch (unlike every other series I’ve read that usually at least has one book that is worst than the others). These books are like the definition of “it’s about the journey not the destination” as from book 1 we are searching for a secret we’re not sure if we will ever find, and yet it is never slow. You get to watch the characters grow and change, becoming more confident in who they are. And it doesn’t even end when the book is over because my other favorite thing about these books, especially when I was young, is the appendices (learned that word from book 4). I had so much fun testing to see if I was a super-taster, making disguises for the book (mine from a kid in pic 3), and learning the magic tricks. These books also have some really great full page art for each chapter. Not only did I immensely enjoy these books (this review might honestly just be a test to see how many positive words I can use to describe these books), but as a kid I learned a lot from them. I will never stop recommending these books to people no matter how old you are because I think they are something every mystery/adventure book-lover should experience. Please just read them. 🥺 #thesecretseries #bookreviews #bookreview #fivestarreview #fivestarrating🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 #fivestars #favbook #favbooks #favoritebooks #favoritebook #favoriteseries #favoritebookseries #middlegradebooks #middlegradefantasy #middlegradefiction #middlegradereads #thenameofthisbookissecret #ifyourereadingthisitstoolate #thisbookisnotgoodforyou #thisisntwhatitlookslike #youhavetostopthis #maxernst #cass #badmagic #badluck #badnews #thebadseries

matteonovak so I was just minding my own business exploring Oasis Springs when I totally saw Judith Ward wandering around. I know it /looks/ like I jumped behind a bush to take a picture but... #notastalker #ipromise #thisisntwhatitlookslike
