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

I'd Tell You I Love You, But Then I'd Have To Kill You by Ally Carter is a very lovable book and the series is all the more engrossing.


Here's the synopsis:

Cammie Morgan is a student at the Gallagher Academy for Exceptional Young Women, a fairly typical all-girls school--typical that is, if every school taught advanced martial arts in PE and the latest in chemical warfare in science, and students received extra credit for breaking CIA codes in computer class. The Gallagher Academy might claim to be a school for geniuses, but it's really a school for spies.

Even though Cammie is fluent in fourteen languages and capable of killing a man seven different ways wither her bare hands, she has no idea what to do when she meets an ordinary boy who thinks she's an ordinary girl. Sure, she can tap his phone, hack into his computer, or track him through town with the skill of a real "pavement artist"--but can she maneuver a relationship with someone who can never know the truth about her?


This book was extremely entertaining to me. The idea of a kick-butt girl who could save the world in a moment's notice but has no clue when it comes to normal boys and normal dates, fabricates the perfect quirky romantic novel.


The characters are easily loved as they are easily able to disable the toughest of alarms and locks. The cover gives a simple but memorable design of what's inside the book.


The best part of this novel was the suspenseful climax when Cammie and her classmates tackle their final exam. The girls are so real and pliable that you feel as if you could befriend them yourself (that is if you don't spill their secret).


Happy Reading! :)

The Girl of Fire and Thorns

Has anyone heard of or read The Girl of Fire and Thorns by Rae Carson?

It seems like a very good read and most likely I will be pouncing on a copy by tomorrow! Here's the synopsis:

Once a century, one person is chosen for greatness.

Elisa is the chosen one.

But she is also the younger of two princesses. The one who has never done anything remarkable, and can’t see how she ever will.

Now, on her sixteenth birthday, she has become the secret wife of a handsome and worldly king—a king whose country is in turmoil. A king who needs her to be the chosen one, not a failure of a princess.

And he’s not the only one who seeks her. Savage enemies, seething with dark magic,are hunting her. A daring, determined revolutionary thinks she could be his people’s savior, and he looks at her in a way that no man has ever looked at her before. Soon it is not just her life, but her very heart that is at stake.

Elisa could be everything to those who need her most. If the prophecy is fulfilled. If she finds the power deep within herself. If she doesn’t die young.

Most of the chosen do.

If any of you have read this book, comment below! I'd love to know if my fellow teen readers loved this as much as I feel I would.

Hush, Hush Saga by Becca Fitzpatrick

If you have not yet read the first three books of the Hush, Hush Saga by Becca Fitzpatrick, you've missed out on the beautifully written tale of a dangerous love and a dark, brewing conflict.

Fitzpatrick has an inspiring power with words that leads you down a twisted path of angels, humans, and Nephillim. Nora Grey's young and curious narration is so utterly real you feel as if you can sympathize with her yourself.

The characters maintain a strong sense of themselves throughout the entire work yet the incidents in the novel remain fresh and satisfyingly exciting.

The final book of the saga is going to be released this coming fall!

Happy Reading!
