Hi! Jana hosts Top Ten Tuesday @thatartsyreadergirl. This weekly meme brings together our love lists and brings the book blogging community together. Each week, Jana will post a prompt, and we readers will make our list based on that topic. I host an event on the discord I mod for every May and take part in an event called Middle-Grade May. I thought I’d recommend some MG books today.  

1- Shannon in the Spotlight by Kalena Miller

This book is such a joy. I loved it a lot, and it brought me back to middle school theater.

2- The Chance to Fly by Ali Stroker & Stacy Davidowitz (Series)

If you’ve been around this blog for a while, you know that this is one of my favorite books. I love the rep, and Nat’s love of theater.

3- Fearless by Mandy Gonzales (Series)

This is another story about theater, but I loved the mystery vibes of the first two books.

4- D&D Dungeon Club-Roll Call by Molly Knox Ostertag

I don’t see this one talked about much. The second book is coming out this summer, and I loved this graphic novel. I thought it was the perfect mix of real life and fantasy.

5- Nimona by N.D. Stevenson

This book is just so fun. I love the characters and the story is delightful. I loved the art style of this one as well.

6- The Mothkeeper by K.O’Neil

Another graphic novel. This book was so cozy, and I loved the art style. I loved the characters and the journey of this one.

7- The Vanderbeekers by Karina Yan Glaser (Series)

This is a rec for those looking for a longer series. I love all the characters, and the stories are fun. The series also talks about things that kids and adults deal with.

8- The Percy Jackson Universe by Rick Riordan (Series)

The Percy Jackson Universe is wide. I’ve enjoyed all three series, but my favorite is Percy Jackson and the Olympians.

9- Dear Mothman by Robin Gow

This book has the reader going through all the emotions. I loved it and will read more from the author.

10- Sir Callie and the Champions of Helston by Esme Symes-Smith (series)

This is a Fantasy, but it’s great. I love Callie and how they’re trying to make a change for the better. I’m going to read the second one soon.
