Monday 14th October – Books of the Week

united we standPerfectScoundrelsIsn’t it good when an author releases new books in two series at once? Ally Carter has written not only a new Gallagher Girl book – United We Spy – but also a new Heist Society one – Perfect Scoundrels. Both of them are on the Book of the Week stand, and we have all the previous books in both series in the Library.

The blurbs…

United We Spy

Cammie and her friends finally know why the terrorist organisation called the Circle of Caven has been hunting her. Now the spy girls and Zach must track down the Circle’s leaders and stop them before they can implement a master plan that will change Cammie – and her country – forever.

Perfect Scoundrels

Katarina Bishop’s family of loveable criminal masterminds couldn’t be less like the gorgeous Hale’s high-society relatives. So when Hale unexpectedly inherits his grandmother’s billion-dollar corporation, there’s no place for Kat. Kat won’t give up that easily, though, especially when she gets a tip-off that the will is a fake: an elaborate con to steal the company’s fortune. Only the most audacious plan yet can hope to rescue the situation. But is Kat willing to save her boyfriend’s company, if it means losing the boy?

Monday 27th August – Book of the Week

This week’s Book of the Week is the latest in a series, rather than the first. Ally Carter’s Gallagher Girls series, about a school for girl spies called the Gallagher Academy for Exceptional Young Women is already  very popular here, so I know there will be lots of interest in the fifth book (there are due to be six in total), Out of Sight, Out of Time.

The blurb on the back says:

Cammie wakes up in an Alpine convent having lost her memory of the whole summer. She and her friends must travel to the other side of the world, trying to piece together the clues that Cammie left behind. But there are people hunting Cammie – people who will stop at nothing to protect their secrets…

Unfortunately I don’t think that the Gallagher Girls books can be read out of order and still make sense, so if you haven’t read the previous ones, you should start with I’d Tell You I Love You but Then I’d Have to Kill You, followed by Cross My Heart and Hope to Spy; Don’t Judge a Girl by Her Cover and Only the Good Spy Young – we have all of them in the library. We also have the first two titles in Ally Carter’s other series – Heist Society and Uncommon Criminals.

I love the titles!
