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

I'd Tell You I Love You, But Then I'd Have to Kill You (Gallagher Girls, #1)I'd Tell You I Love You, But Then I'd Have to Kill You by Ally Carter

This was taken from goodreads.com/jess_readerwriter, I wrote the review freely and I apologize if the reviews are not written in a professional manner.

Synopsis: The Gallagher Academy for Exceptional Young Women lives up to its name. Not only does this exclusive boarding school teach advanced language skills and correct deportment; its students also master the arts of tapping phones, hacking into computers, and spying in public places. At school, second-generation Gallagher Girl Cammie Morgan has impeccable credentials: She is fluent in 14 languages and able to kill an assailant in seven different ways. But recently life has dealt Cammie a card that she never anticipated: She has fallen in love with an ordinary boy who knows nothing about her exotic double life. A truly covert romance.


My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Lead female role acted extremely young for her age
Moved at a fast pace


Surprisingly, this book was a lot better than expected. The cover -- Well, it looks like the book is for eleven year olds who are little Catholic school girls with a bad side. . . .

This book (Thank God) was aimed for an older audience.

The book starts out with Cameron Morgan describing the life she lives as a spy at the Gallagher Academy For Exceptional Young Women. Ya know, she can do all the spy things. She can kill anyone she wants with whatever she has (She doesn't, though. Just to be clear), she can speak several different languages, she's undercover most of the time, and everything it a secret about the school.

During an assignment type thing for Cammie's CoveOps class, she comes across a boy named Josh. Cammie's nickname/code name is Chameleon and all the girls who noticed that Josh had saw her, were shocked. He actually saw her. . . . NO ONE SEES CAMMIE WHEN SHE DOESNT WANT TO BE SEEN!

Anyhoo, the story continues with Cammie and her friends stalking Josh to make sure HE isn't a spy and then finally letting Cammie date him, secretly, of course. Cammie sneaks out of the GAcademy to be with Josh while she feeds him lies about her fake life.

The rest is for you to find out.

This book was actually REALLY good, don't let the cover fool you. Cammie acts a little like she's never been in the outside world which is because she really hasn't! People downgrade this book due to the fact that 1) Cammie doesn't really act her age (Sometimes too old and sometimes far too young) and 2) Because Cammie seems clueless half of the time or cries too much.

I guess, you have to consider the fact that she's pretty sheltered. But again, she knows more than everyone in everyday life and she does PhD experiments.

Thank God this book got better and better or I would have put it down. But it was pretty damn predictable. Obviously, the end of this book is pretty expected. You know what is going to happen. . . .

I'd Tell You I Love You, But Then I Have To Kill You is a helluva fun read. I definitley reccomend it if you have nothing to do or you're out of books. It was entertaining for the most part.
