"Cammie Morgan is a student at the Gallagher Academy for Exceptional Young Women, a fairly typical all-girls school—that is, if every school taught advanced martial arts in PE and the latest in chemical warfare in science, and students received extra credit for breaking CIA codes in computer class. The Gallagher Academy might claim to be a school for geniuses but it’s really a school for spies.
Even though Cammie is fluent in fourteen languages and capable of killing a man in seven different ways, she has no idea what to do when she meets an ordinary boy who thinks she’s an ordinary girl. Sure, she can tap his phone, hack into his computer, or track him through town with the skill of a real “pavement artist”—but can she maneuver a relationship with someone who can never know the truth about her?
Cammie Morgan may be an elite spy-in-training, but in her sophomore year, she’s on her most dangerous mission—falling in love."
So I enjoyed this book more the first time I read it than when I read it the second time. Maybe it's because I like the action the other three have that I feel this one doesn't have as much of.
This book was good, I liked Ally Carter's idea of a top secret spy school that everyone else thinks is for snobby rich kids. It was very creative and different and one of my favorite series.
This one doesn't have as much spy action as the other ones do, it is more focused on the romance part, but its still really good. I also really liked the cover and the title. It was the part that drew me in.
Anyway sorry for the really lame review guys :/ I just couldn't think of that much to write for this book, hope you all forgive me. *hopeful smile*
Live, Laugh, Love.... Read!

"Meghan Chase has a secret destiny—one she could never have imagined…
Something has always felt slightly off in Meghan's life, ever since her father disappeared before her eyes when she was six. She has never quite fit in at school…or at home.
When a dark stranger begins watching her from afar, and her prankster best friend becomes strangely protective of her, Meghan senses that everything she's known is about to change.
But she could never have guessed the truth—that she is the daughter of a mythical faery king and is a pawn in a deadly war. Now Meghan will learn just how far she'll go to save someone she cares about, to stop a mysterious evil no faery creature dare face…and to find love with a young prince who might rather see her dead than let her touch his icy heart."
But anyway.... this book was super good. It took me a while to get into it but as soon as it reached the rising action, I was HOOKED! I would be at school WISHING that I could read through all my classes. I was draw into this book in a way that was bordering on obsessive (in a good way). I flew through the rest of it and immediately went out to go buy the second and third.
I loved all the characters in this book! (obviously I am Team Ash ^.^) Everybody was just so likable which is very rare in books...in my opinion. I think everyone should check this out cause it was just amazing. =D
Live, Love, Laugh.... Read!
