From Goodreads: The Gallagher Academy for Exceptional Young Women lives up to its name. Not only does this exclusive boarding school teach advanced language skills and correct deportment; its students also master the arts of tapping phones, hacking into computers, and spying in public places. At school, second-generation Gallagher Girl Cammie Morgan has impeccable credentials: She is fluent in 14 languages and able to kill an assailant in seven different ways. But recently life has dealt Cammie a card that she never anticipated: She has fallen in love with an ordinary boy who knows nothing about her exotic double life. A truly covert romance.
Welcome to spy school, and not any spy school but the Gallagher Academy a prestigious all girls spy school. These girls may know how to deactivate a bomb and kill you with a straw, but they don't have much experience with boys.
This is a light and fun read. It followed the adventures of Cammie and her friends as Cammie tries to blend in and be normal with a boy in town. She mets Josh when she's on a covert operation and develops a crush on him. As their relationship progesses, Cammie's true identity gets harder and harder to hide.
I really liked Cammie and her friends. They were great girls and people I would love to have in my life. They really stuck up for each other and were there when things got tough.
This one thing that I wasn't too fond of was the reader of the audiobook. I understand she was portraying a teenage girl, but I felt her voice was a bit over the top. Soon though, I got into the story and her voice didn't bother me as much.
Overall if you are looking for a quick and chick-lit read, this is your book!
Sounds like a cute book Great review.
