What is the order of the Valerie books? Do they have to be read in order?
In order, the books are Royally Jacked, Spin Control, and Do-Over. They don’t have to be read in order, but since the books take place sequentially, you’ll end up having some things spoiled if you read them out of order. It all depends on whether you’re the type of person who hates spoilers or not. There is also a short story available called Reality Check. It’s about Val’s friend Jules. It can be read at any time without having to worry about having the books spoiled.

It all depends on whether you’re the type of person who hates spoilers or not. If you want an easy way to read the stories in order, Simon & Schuster has issued the trilogy in a single volume with the title Royally Crushed. Finally, there is Reality Check, which is a free short story available about Val’s friend Jules Jackson. I wrote it in response to reader requests for more about Jules, and it is available for free here. It can be read at any time without spoilers for the other books.
