When Cammie "The Chameleon" Morgan visits her roommate Macey in Boston, she thinks she's in for an exciting end to her summer break. After all she's there to watch Macey's father accept the nomination for vice president of the United States. But when you go to the world's best school (for spies), "exciting" and "deadly" are never far apart. Cammie and Macey soon find themselves trapped in a kidnappers' plot, with only their espionage skill to save them.
As her junior year begins, Cammie can't shake the memory of what happened in Boston, and even the Gallagher Academy for Exceptional Young Women doesn't feel like the safe haven it once did, Shocking secrets and old flames seem to lurk around everyone of the mansion's corners as Cammie and her friends struggle to answer the questions Who is after Macey? and how can the Gallagher Girls keep her safe?
Soon Cammie is joining Bex and Liz as Macey's private security team on the campaign trail. The girls must use their spy training at every turn as the stakes are raised, and Cammie gets closer and closer to the shocking truth....
Okay this book i would put in the category of series where you started reading when you were younger, and loved it then, but now that your older, it doesn't have the same appeal. You keep reading the series though because you started it and feel dedicated to see where it ends. Other series in this would be the Clique, the pretty little liars, and the madison finn series (which i have stopped reading.)
As i grow older, i seem to be getting more interested in more serious and mature books, and this book doesn't satisfy. It's perfect for middle school students, and maybe lower, but now it just seems... juvenile. Don't get me wrong. I will probably still read the next one, but that's the things with some series. As more and more books come out, you become less interested unless it's a captivating book. Younger books are no longer interesting, and when a new book comes out in the series, i don't feel the urge to buy it immediately, and if i do read it, i usually borrow it. Now that's not for all series. The Uglies (which ended), THE MORTAL INSTRUMENTS (GREAT SERIES READ NOW!), THE HUNGER GAMES TRILOGY (DITTO), and wake and fade series aren't bad at all, but then again they are more mature series.
Okay now back to the book. I really felt like the entire storyline was very boring, There were barely any action scenes and out of the ones there were, they were very predictable, like those scary movies where they'll be a scary monster behind the door. You know it, the guy next to you and the child who sneaked in to see the R rated film knows it, and everyone shouts don't open the door, but they do it anyways, and hey!, there's the monster.
It was also reallly boring.
So i recommend you to read the story if you not in high school, and you'd probably be interested, but if you are, i wouldn't recommend the series unless you already read it and need to read it because that's the loyal reader we are, i totally sympathize.
