Cross My Heart and Hope to Spy

RL 6.1

PTS 9.0

          Forced to give up her first boyfriend Josh, all Cammie wants is to have a peaceful semester in her spy school, Gallagher Academy. Of course, when your school hosts a mysterious guest, code name: Blackthorne, then you get blamed for a security breach at your school, pretty much nothing will be peaceful. Turns out "Blackthorne" is Gallagher Academy's counterpoint, an all boy spy school. We all know what happens when an all boy school merges with an all girl school, let's just say chaos will happen and its top secret status may be at risk! I recommend this book to people who love romance and action! This book is the sequel to I'd Tell You I Love You, But Then I'd Have to Kill You. If you read the first book, the second book adds a new twist. Spy boys will be coming to the all girls school, maybe there will be someone new in Cammie's love life!

RL n/a

PTS n/a

          A time traveling Zyk has come to inform two children that his world is ending. Throughout this story, monsters attack them and friends help them. Will they be able to save Zykland!? This book is even written in San Diego! This is a great book for high readers, fantasy seekers, and vocabulary lovers. The vocabulary is so high that you'll need a dictionary! (Just kidding!)

I'd Tell You I Love You, But Then I'd Have to Kill You

By Aly Carter

AR

RL 5.9

PTS 10.0

          Gallagher Academy might seem like just an ordinary academy for rich, genius girls, but it's not. It's really a school for spies, it's just like any other school where the students are taught advanced martial arts in PE, the latest in chemical warfare in science, and receive extra credit for breaking CIA code in computer class. Cammie Morgan may be able to speak 14 languages and kill people in 7 different ways, but she doesn't know anything about being an ordinary girl who likes an ordinary guy.  Can she manage to keep her spy life and her ordinary life separate? Or is she going to have to give something up to keep something else? I would recommend this book to people who like romance! You would really like this book if you like spies, school, spy schools, and action. This might have too much romance, but it also has action, missions, kidnapping, death and drivers ed. Cammie will sacrifice... to have...!
