Review: Cross My Heart and Hope to Spy by Ally Carter
Title: Cross My Heart and Hope to Spy
Author: Ally Carter
Publisher: Hyperion
Publication Date: October 2, 2007
Book Summary:
After staking out, obtaining, and then being forced to give up her first boyfriend, Josh, all Cammie Morgan wants is a peaceful semester. But that’s easier said than done when you’re a CIA legacy and go to the premier school in the world… for spies.
Cammie Morgan may have a genius IQ and attend the best school in the country, but as she starts the spring semester of her sophomore year there are a lot of things she doesn’t know. Like will her ex-boyfriend even remember she exists? And how much trouble did she really get in last semester? And, most of all, exactly why is her mother acting so strangely?
All Cammie wants is a nice, normal semester, but she’s about to learn her greatest lesson yet—that when you go to a school for spies, nothing is ever as it seems.
Review:
Now that we know more about Cammie and her school for spies, we get to add an element – boys in the school. There is apparently a boys school very similar to the school Cammie is currently in, and they will be staying with the girls for a short period of time. This opens up a whole new set of obstacles – I really loved reading about how the girls spent more time getting ready and brushing their hair before going to class because the boys would be there because it is so true, and a detail that could have easily been left out.
While the last book had a big action scene at the end, I felt this one had even more to keep me reading. There were many questions asked and answered throughout, and many different missions for the girls to be tested on (and those missions are my favorite part)!
A fast paced, girl power adventure, Cross My Heart and Hope to Spy was a great second book in the Gallagher Girl series!
