True childhood trauma is that My Babysitter’s a Vampire and Spooksville were both cancelled on cliffhangers

So I found out they made a TV series out of a book series I enjoyed as a middle schooler. I also found out they didn't exactly do the series justice. But it made me nostalgic, so I thought about rereading some of my favorite books. However, i got them from the library as a kid, so i didn't actually own them. So I figured I'd buy a kindle version.

They're not there. Well, the first half of the series, which got a reprint when the show came out was, but all my favorite books (The Evil House, Time Terror, The Witch's Gift) were in the latter half. The Evil House I could find marked up on Ebay but The Witch's Gift...it's just gone. It's not on Amazon, Ebay, Thriftbook, etc. It's not on Libby or Overdrive.

I just...It's like the book is gone. I may never read it again. I can't remember was all the gifts were and may never find out. And it just...it bothers me and there's nothing I can do about it.

"'But then I saw how you were willing to risk your life to save your friend. You know that is one of two things that I admire most about you humans. Your life is often at its best when it looks as if it's going to end.' 'What is the other thing you admire?' he asked. She turned aside and stared at the night sky, and Adam couldn't help but notice the great longing on her face. 'Your people have the stars,' she said simply."
