YA Buddy Readers' Corner ♥ discussion

Cammie Morgan is back, and it's clear that her life hasn't calmed down since the events of I'd Tell You I Love You, But Then I'd Have to Kill You. At first, giddy anticipation is in the air. Gallagher Academy, Cammie's elite spy school, is hosting a visit from a covert training center for boys. Soon after the boys' arrival, though, everything goes dangerously awry when a series of security breaches are discovered at the academy. Worse yet, teenage agent-in-training Cammie is being blamed for the penetration. With the school's top-secret status at risk, the Gallagher Girls have to work quickly to save their beloved school

I’m expecting this to be more of the same, but it’ll be interesting to see whether the character changes much.

I honestly don't know if I ever read it or not, it's been years, but I just read Heist Society and have been reading a lot of crime books so I'm definitely in the mood for this

Opening chapter-I’d have loved this idea as a younger reader. Rather preposterous, and I’m sure she’ll be after ‘the subject’ as soon as humanely possible.

Up to ch4. (view spoiler)[ So, how long until Cammie works out what her mum is hiding? (hide spoiler)]

Up to ch9. (view spoiler)[ I’m surprised the plans haven’t been discussed more openly. Our ‘secret op’ is standard Saturday afternoon shopping (or am I missing something?) (hide spoiler)]

Up to ch 9. (view spoiler)[ surprise surprise, they meet the boys before they join the school. Inevitable tension. (hide spoiler)]

Up to ch18. (view spoiler)[ The ball is an exam...and, surprise surprise it’s interrupted by a security breach. The hints of Zach’s involvement are too obvious, so let’s hope the girls sort out what’s going on soon. (hide spoiler)]

Up to ch22. This would be an interesting read from one of the boys’ viewpoint.

Up to ch26. (view spoiler)[ Tense moment coming up. Guess we’ll see just who is in the know, and I’m really hoping this is some elaborate set-up. (hide spoiler)]

Finished. Review on home page.

End of chapter 1. Honestly I'm not sure if I ever read this before. I know I read the first one years ago. Having a hard time remembering what happened though. Don't really know if I actually read this one though or if I just own it. Hope the book gives me a little refresher on what happened.

1-5 (view spoiler)[ Definitely don't think I ever actually read this. Remember why I bought it though. Ally Carter writes interesting and fast paced YA. They're fun to read. I am so sick of books that move super slow so this is a nice change of pace. I don't remember this at all. But it is interesting. Cammie is a funny character, I like reading from her point of view. (hide spoiler)]

End of chapter 9 (view spoiler)[ Okay, new love interest? Definitely a cool "pop quiz". Curious where this will go, but a lot of this book has been just filler, not really related to the plot... which is...? Not that I'm not enjoying it, I just don't see where it's going. (hide spoiler)]

End of 11(view spoiler)[ I didn't read the synopsis so I didn't know the boys were coming to live there til now. (hide spoiler)] Definitely never read this before

End of 16 (view spoiler)[ LMAO oh strapless bras. Hahaha omg (hide spoiler)]

End of 21 (view spoiler)[ so he's on to her. Should have seen that coming. He's trained like she is! He probably put bugs in her room too! (hide spoiler)]

End of Chapter 6

Loving this so far.
(view spoiler)[I can't believe I put this on hold for a long time. As usual, I love the spy stuff but I got a feeling there are going to be more boys on this one. How cool is that to have a helicopter ride as a transportation to wherever your pop quiz is going to be? (hide spoiler)]

End of Chapter 14

(view spoiler)[Josh and Deedee? That must be hard to take, but judging by Josh's reaction, it seemed like he still likes Cammie. I thought how it was really embarrassing for everyone to hear about their conversation (Zach included). Let's see how this turns out with Zach in the picture! (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[This was an embarrassing moment. One would think that she would have come up with a brilliant solution considering her spy background, but I guess not. I thought it was strange that Zach was just waiting for her in the hallway! (hide spoiler)]

The End

I enjoyed the book. (view spoiler)[It was easy and quick which was a great way to end a busy week. The ending was pretty open so for sure, there's more Zach and Josh in the future. The teachers were such great actors for pulling off that final exam. I felt bad for Dr. Steve who had to receive some physical pain as part of the test. Lol (hide spoiler)]
