Love Robin Benway's books. This is an extremely fun, frothy spy thriller with excellent supporting characters. It's all sorted by the end, but I think there are the doings here for a great series a la Gallagher Girls. ( )

It was one of those books I was sad to finish. ( )

I got this for my daughter, but decided to read it first. I'm so glad I did! I really enjoyed it. It was hard to put down, the characters were believable, the dialog between the teenagers as well as the thoughts expressed by the lead 'spy' were hilarious, insightful, and enlightening. I hope the author continues the series. I'd like read more. ( )
