Editor of record
Forrest Webber, Editor, Hooked to Books TV
Reading-order guides, book news, and the Friday Chapter.
Forrest Webber edits Hooked to Books TV, where readers come to read series in the right order and hear book news without the noise. The guides here are built like reference shelves: full series lists with years, a reasoned reading order, and sources named with dates. When we re-check a guide, the update is stamped on the page.
How the guides are made
Articles on this site are researched and drafted with AI assistance and reviewed by Forrest before they ship. Every guide says so in a note at its foot, next to the date it was published and the date it was last updated. More on our process is on the About page.
