| Rank | Title | Mistake |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | A Charmed Life | The author says that the real Scottish king, Macbeth, died in the year before the Battle of Hastings in 1066. But Macbeth actually died in 1057. |
| 2 | Let's Pretend this Never Happened | In the Tuesday 24 entry, Jamie says that Stinker has black eyes, but in the Sunday 29 (the very last) entry of "Am I the Princess or the Frog?" Jamie & Mike say that Stinker has brown eyes. |
| 3 | Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets | When Harry causes Goyle's Swelling Solution to explode in class, it showers the whole class. But a few moments later, only half of the class approaches Snape for the antidote. |
| 4 | Left Behind 1 | On page 457, when Carpathia is about to murder Stonagal and Todd-Cothran, the orientation makes no sense. Carpathia is standing with a gun to Stonagal's (who is kneeling) ear, and Todd-Cothran is sitting upright in a chair on the other side of Stonagal. There is no way that the bullet could have the trajectory to kill Todd-Cothran without taking a sharp turn upward after passing through Stonagal's head. |
