Though Lizzie McGuire may have been my introduction to the world of Disney Channel productions, it was Raven that kept my fandom going. It was much closer than Lizzie or even Even Stevens to the kind of situation comedy I was used to: a laugh track, quote-worthy lines, and no animated alter egos, not to mention the fact that it was way more hilarious.
Since the show's debut in early 2003, I have seen episodes in virtually every format imaginable: live airings, VHS (both taping it myself and a copy of the Supernaturally Stylish video that used to be available at my local library), DVD, iTunes, and streaming. While some episodes I've seen I don't know how many times, others of them--particularly the later ones--I've hardly watched at all.
Still, the show has had a lasting impact on me...and apparently on lots of people who watched it back in the day, as Disney did a reboot called Raven's Home. Reading this book was like looking at one of my high school yearbooks: It was a reminder of life before COVID-19; before I made some friendship-ending mistakes that I will always regret; a reminder of the days when I spent my spare time researching my favorite entertainment online and playing my favorite songs again and again.
So, call me biased, but I enjoyed this book; while it won't go down as one of the great works of literature, it served as an excellent reminder of days gone by.

Two classic Raven stories . Including the infamous like “ Do you carry a lunchbox?” Nostalgic and great humour

This was a good book. I liked it because it was funny and it looked like a comic book.
