I remember being in high school and being frustrated by the fact that I didn’t have time to read the books I wanted to. Summer came and I was thrilled to be set free to read what I wanted!

Summer reading can help keep teens minds engaged and in motion during these months of downtime from school. If they don’t have ideas of their own, an easy way to get a list of books going is by finding a great series or author for your teen to get involved in reading.

For this reason I am compiling a list of series, or authors with multiple books to help you in your quest for filling your teen’s reading list. High School Series Books for Your Summer Reading List is the last of these posts. You can also check out K-2 Series Books Summer Reading List, Grades 3-5 Series Books for Your Summer Reading List, and Middle School Series Books for Your Summer Reading.
