Hello!

I'm hoping some of you out there are well versed in the picayune rules
of writing.

When a student writes something like:

"My favorite books are the American Girl books, New True books, and the
Harry Potter series."

does anything need to be underlined or italicized?  My instinct says
Harry Potter should be underlined or italicized but the others should
not.
I have not found the answer in any of the grammar or style guides in
our library.

Thank you!
