Book Review-Cross My Heart and Hope to Spy by Ally Carter

Cross My Heart and Hope to Spy is the second book in Ally Carter's Gallagher Girls series for young adults. Cameron and her classmates are surprised and intrigued by some new completely unexpected additions to the student body at Gallagher Academy. The inclusion of boys from a previously unknown school throw the girls for a loop, causing some competition and a little more primping before classes.

This was another fun and fast-paced book. Once again, however, there was a big similarity to the HP books that I would be surprised if nobody else caught. It really reminded me of Goblet of Fire with the other school coming to stay for awhile, the kids learning to dance for a ball, etc.

Still, give it a try. The spy angle makes it different and their covert operations training makes in interesting and suspenseful. All in all, a fun book full of smart girls that teens will enjoy reading about.

3.5/5
