Cross My Heart and Hope to Spy by Allie Pleiter Review

Hello Friends :)

I pray today finds you all doing well, and I'm so thankful you decided to stop by The Preppy Book Princess for another book review.

I'm Kirby, and I'm so excited you're here.

Last year, I started rereading one of my all time favorite young adult series. I'd never had a chance to read the tenth anniversary editions of this particular series, and it's been such a fun treat to finally get to do so.

Since I'd read them all for the first time before I started my blog, I never actually reviewed any of them the first time around.

So now I'm trying to share quick reviews of each title as I go through my reread of the series.

If you'd like to check out my review of the first book, you can do so using the link below:

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

Otherwise, keep on reading down below for today's full review.

Cross My Heart and Hope to Spy by Allie Pleiter:

Source: Christmas Gift from my Hubby

Publisher: Little Brown Books for Young Readers

Publication Date: October 2nd, 2007

Genre: Young Adult Fiction/Spy Fiction/Contemporary

Series: Gallagher Girls

Synopsis:

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.

My Review:

This was such a fun treat to get to reread this title, and it took me back a lot of years to just how much I loved these books the first time around.

I personally think the second book is even better than the first, and I loved getting to see more of the sisterhood working together, more of the dastardly plots starting to develop, and the introduction of Zach and the other boys from the Blackthorne institute.

Ally Carter's writing style is so fun and witty, and always leaves you wanting to come back for more. Cammy Morgan is definitely a worthy protagonist, and I love how she's written in a relatable manner, despite her being a secret operative in training at an exclusive academy for young girls.

This reread was definitely what I needed to take my mind off so many things, and I can't wait to continue on with book three.

The bonus chapter at the end of the tenth anniversary edition was definitely worth the wait, and I'm so happy that I have the entire series in these particular editions.

Final Rating: 5/5.

Thanks so much for reading guys! Have a great rest of your day :)
