I've recently discovered Open Library where I found access to a whole bunch of unicorn books that I couldn't find anywhere else. Unfortunately the entire My Secret Unicorn series is not present, and the epubs are generated from scans and are full of typos, but then these books are easy reads and the typos are not hard to sort out. In fact these books are such easy reads I can read one a day just in the time it takes me to commute to and from work!
But the stories are sweet and positive. Lauren discovered her pony Twilight is really a unicorn, and in each book, they are presented with a problem that they must solve with little to no outside help. They are wonderful books for anyone who is horse or unicorn crazy and I'm sure I would have enjoyed them as a kid myself.
Update - though Open Library didn't have the full set, I was fortunate to be able to fill in several holes using my library that for some reason had several books of the series in French. And if you are able to read in German, it seems the series kept on going, right up to book #55! I wonder why they aren't available in English seeing as the author is British. Well, it was challenge enough tracking down the first 15 so perhaps not being able to read them all isn't such a bad thing after all.
