Fablehaven wasn't cringy, that series was awesome that didn't use the same boring werewolves and vampires monster garbage, it went oldschool European. Same with The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flammel.

too many of these

also, I'm trying to remember the title of a YA book I used to read. It was a series, it was about a group of friends who played some magic D&D or some shit in a treehouse and some monsters or something came over the town, maybe some shit with werewolves. The cover was like dark bricks and maybe had some creepy wolf eyes or some shit. ring any bells?

I liked the Pendragon series a lot in middle school and early high school. Read up to the Quillian Games, then couldn't be bothered to finish. Don't know how cringy it actually is, but I thought the concepts of First, Second, and Third Earth were cool.

I read this too. I finished the entire series, in retrospect its pretty cringy and the story really falls apart after book...6 i think? One of the books is just some guys furry porn fantasies put to life. I dunno. The overarching mythos and logic of the books is sloppy but the first 3 ish were good.

Not cringy but I burned through almost all goosebumps books as a kid, and even in my kid head I noticed how formulaic some of them were

My favourites were the ones with the school where everything turns grey and kids attacking each other in a lord-of-the-flies esque way, and the one where some kid at a camp gets stabbed in the neck with a fork.

Anyway, on a related note, I secretly read (and denied stealing) my sister's tween romance books, which were pretty embarrassing.

I mostly read Roald Dahl as a kid though, based mum

>>9871381
My school bullies were really into these

>>9879905
The Welcome to the NHK light novel is actually pretty good. Way better than the anime, especially when you know the context behind the author.

Literally fucking this. I think I read it twice.

I was really into these as a kid, as well as those Olympus Books that Riordan wrote. I read a bunch of those Magic Tree house books when I was in the like 1st to 3rd grade and then kinda moved onto Harry Potter after that.. I really enjoyed the Chronicles of Narnia as well. There were a ton of series that I read that I can't really recall as of now, but I read a ton of books when I was a kid. Rohald Dahl was big, The Rangers Apprentice series was also big then. I remember though when I hit about 11 or 12 years old I got really into Steinbeck and Catcher in the Rye. Also all those Artemis Fowl and those Chris d'Lacey books. Really enjoyed those Phillip Pullman, The Golden Compass, books as well as that Wee Free Men series by Terry Pratchett.

I didn't know that genre was a thing until I found one from the 70s in a desk in the back corner of Mr. Becker's 6th grade social studies class. I devoured the thing. Pretty sure I was hiding a boner under the desk.

I powered through a lot of the crap mentioned in this thread. But when my sixth grade self read Eragon it became the first book I outright dropped. It's funny to hear that not only did it lift the plot from Star Wars, but it had scenes taken out of a bunch of other books as well. I was not surprised to hear that it was only published because of nepotism.

It always makes me so mad when he pretends his literary opinion means anything
