It's called a series, and they aren't that bad. I've only dabbled with one of them and can't remember which one it was (we have a free library at work). If you aren't aware, print media isn't exactly a hot commodity these days, so being eye catching or "sassy" helps get traction. Funny story though, you aren't supposed to judge a book by it's cover, but by the contents inside.
What's weird is that I work at a used book store and we are busier than we've ever been in our fifty years of operation. From my perspective, print media is a very hot commodity... so long as the selection is carefully curated and the prices are carefully tuned to respond to the market on a day-to-day basis. If retail sellers can't manage that, maybe they need to look at their own business practices and figure out what they're doing wrong.
It's complete trash. I was gifted one of them and it was one of the worst books I've ever tried to read, just painfully bad writing by someone with very little life experience.
