Quotes
Add a Quote“Your mission,” Mr. Soloman said, “is to find out what he drinks with those funnel cakes.”
“I know in the spy movies it always looks really cool when the operative goes from a maid's uniform to a slinky, sexy, ballgown in the amount of time it takes an elevator to climb three floors. Well, I don't know how it is for TV spies, but I can tell you that even with Velcro, the art of the quick change is one that must take a lot of practice (not to mention better lighting than one is likely to find in a tunnel that was once part of the underground railroad).”
“I suppose a lot of teenage girls feel invisible sometimes, like they just disappear. Well, that's me—Cammie the Chameleon. But I'm luckier than most because, at my school, that's considered cool. I go to a school for spies.”
“Number of empty Ben & Jerry's containers: 3 -- two mint chocolate cookie, one plain vanilla. (Who buys plain vanilla ice cream from Ben & Jerry's, anyway? Is there a greater waste?)”
"Sure, she knows cuss words in fourteen different languages, but when faced with a minor catastrophe, Liz says 'oopsy daisy.' "

Add a CommentThis is an intriguing first book to a fast-paced series by Ally Carter. Cammie is a character you can easily relate to, whether you're a boy or a girl. I also just love all the twists and turns that Ally Carter put in. Like Blackthorne? Never would have seen that coming, though I probably should have. And I especially love how she made it a school for GIRL spies. Usually when there's books like this, the main characters are all boys. But this book puts a twist on that prejudice. GIRLS ROCK!
Honestly, this book bored me to death. It's not descriptive and quite boring. I honestly think that they should make a movie because that way it'd be more interesting.
Best series since yesterday!! Loved it all can't wait to get the next book in the series!! Looks like a love triangle might be forming!!!
i LOVE the gallagher girl's,they R.O.C.K. PS TO GIRL'S WHO LOVE THE GALLAGHER GIRL'S GO TO--ALLYCARTER.COM, i'm not saying you have to if you don't want to. :)
My favorite series. Not my favorite book in the series, but the rest of the series doesnt makes since without it. You've got to love Cammie.
I loved this book so much, and the series just keeps on getting better and better.
I’d Tell You I Love You, But Then I’d Have to Kill You by Ally Carter was originally published by Hyperion in 2006. It is the first in the Gallagher Girls series. Cammie Morgan is a student at the Gallagher Academy for Exceptional Young Women your typical all girl private school for genius, well except for the fact that the girls are actually being trained to become elite spies. With classes like advanced martial arts, covert ops and CIA code breaking for extra credit things can get intense. Cammie is known as a chameleon; she is capable of blending into any environment. She has never really been noticed before, that is until she is seen on an undercover mission by a normal teenage boy, Josh. Sure she knows 14 languages and could kill a man with her bare hands, but interact with a teenage boy, especially one who as cute as Josh, now that’s tough. She can easily tap his phone and hack his computer but can she make him believe she is who she claims to be? Can she carry on a relationship with him without anyone finding out? It shouldn’t be so hard when you have your genius best friends helping you. All seems to be falling in to place except did I mention that Cammie’s mother is the headmistress of the school. Will Cammie and her friends be able to complete this dangerous mission? I have been a fan of Ally Carter’s other YA series Heist Society for a while now, so I don’t know what took me so long to pick up the this book (I will blame ignorance and a giant TBR list). I’m really glad that I did get this book and start reading the series because I really enjoyed this book. I started listening to the audiobook and I also had the book so I was able to read along with the story. I found that some of the voices were annoying though. I thought the story was very cute, and I love that it was from a girls point of view; I’ve looked and it’s really tough to find books about female spies. There are some irritating or cheesy moments in the story, but I can overlook them and continue on with the series in the near future because I really want to see what happens to the girls next. I feel that some of the backstory we learn in this book will become relevant in the next books. There are currently five books in the series so if interested in picking up the series you don’t have to wait between the books to continue. One more thing I want to mention is the title and the cover. First of all the titles of the books are all pretty long, but they are fitting to the theme. I like that the covers have some of the words written in what looks like letters cut from magazines and therefore it look like a ransom letter. The one thing that I don’t like about the covers is the girl’s head is cut off; this is just a pet peeve of mine. Previously there were talks of a film and the rights were optioned by Disney. I think it would make a great movie or even a TV series. Check out my blog for more reviews http://bibliophilesisters.wordpress.com/
Best book series in the whole wide world! A must read! And the more you read, the better it gets!
When I first started reading I was like , spies ? Not me , however I stayed dedicated to it and in the end ... I wanted to be a spy myself :P
I love this series! Ally is a great writer. If you loved this book try her other series Heist Society. This book might start out a little slow but it gets better. There are five books in the series so far. The books get a lot better as the series goes on so, if you didnt absoultely love this book you will probably like the books that come next more.
