Top 10 Best Book Series to Read in Middle School
-
Harry Potter - J.K. Rowling
I finished this series, now I don't know what to do with my life.
-
Percy Jackson and the Olympians - Rick Riordan
-
Warriors - Erin Hunter
The best book series ever, I very strongly recommend reading the books. They are so good and need to be higher.
Fantastic! Well written. My son loves these books, and it really sparks his imagination!
How is this not more popular than Harry Potter? I love these books!
-
Hunger Games - Suzanne Collins
I also read this trilogy in fifth grade (middle school). I highly recommend it.
-
The Lord of the Rings - J.R.R. Tolkien
More of a high school series if you ask me. I've read the first book. It's rather tough to understand, but it's also a brilliant book. It's definitely a must-read.
Depends on your maturity level. Harry Potter is a children's book, The Lord of the Rings is very much a book for grownups.
My brother and I re-read this series every few years! Amazing world-building and characters. I love this story.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid - Jeff Kinney
-
Middle School - James Patterson
-
Kane Chronicles - Rick Riordan
I really feel like this is one of the more underrated series I've read. Everybody is always comparing it to the Percy Jackson and Heroes of Olympus series, and I will say that I do agree that I like those books more. However, the main reason for that is I've been with Percy and the others for seven more books than I've been with Carter and Sadie. It's very close in my opinion though, and when a trilogy is almost as good as a ten-book series (or two series), that really says a lot.

Eragon - Christopher Paolini
I love this series! It is one of the best, especially if you are interested in dragons like me. I highly recommend you read these books. They are the best!
One of the best books I have ever read. I love rereading and writing fanfictions about it.

A Series of Unfortunate Events - Lemony Snicket (Daniel Handler)
-
Twilight - Stephenie Meyer
-
Matched - Ally Condie
-
Land of Stories - Chris Colfer
-
Pretty Little Liars - Sara Shepard
Come on! This is the best book series ever. And why is Twilight on the list? It's the worst and most overrated book ever made.
Those books are really intriguing, and we don't know what happens next. Awesome series.
-
The Mysterious Benedict Society - Trenton Lee Stewart
-
The Missing - Margaret Peterson Haddix
-
The 39 Clues - Rick Riordan and others
The 39 Clues series is amazing! How is it on 20? I'm rereading the books right now and I love them so much! It just gets better and better the more you read it!
-
Redwall - Brian Jacques
Ought to be higher on the list, it's definitely my all-time favorite series. To anyone who hasn't read these books: you don't know what you're missing. These are some of the greatest books in existence.
I would recommend this series to most people in middle school and older - it is a huge part of my life and the best series I've ever read.
The food descriptions in there are legendary.
-
Blue Is for Nightmares - Laurie Faria Stolarz
Intriguing, interesting, scary, and funny at the same time. Really a good book to read.
-
The Lying Game - Sara Shepard
-
Bone - Jeff Smith
-
Absolutely Almost - Lisa Graff
This book is so inspiring. It is about a boy who is behind everyone else. He is always "almost" as good as his friend or almost as good as anything. It is about how he gets through school and life.
-
The Secret Circle - L.J. Smith
I watched an episode of The Secret Circle, and I loved it. The TV show was based on books, and the story seems good.

Hank the Cowdog - John R. Erickson
