was hoping for more

I have listened to several books by this author before and loved them. When one did not come out in audio I even read the book not such an easy task for a someone with Dislexia. The problem I had with this book was I found the main Character Grace while whine. She gradded on me. I had to stop the book a couple of times and leave it for a day because I couldn't stand how whine she was I don't know if that is the performance or if that is how she was written or maybe a combination of the two. I am unsure if I will listen to the next book in the series. As for this one not my favorite by Ally Carter.

Confused

This book is very dramatic. It’s a sort of picture into a PTSD brain I think. The ending is a cliffhanger. I need to know what is going on! I guess I’ll have to hurry up and get the next one or forever suffer the anxiety of my confusion.

Another great book by Ally Carter!

I love Ally Carter's books and while I have to admit I didn't love it quite as much as her two other series, it was still great and good set up for the rest of the series. I read/listened non-stop other than a short break to sleep. I'd recommend this to anyone who likes a good book with clean language, no graphic sexual situations, a little espionage, and strong characters.

Wow

A page turner, really intense never wanted to put it down. The author nailed it again ally carter is an amazing author and genius. The narrator is spot on.

May have enjoyed it more, if read by myself

I enjoyed Ally Carter's other Gallagher Girl series and was hoping for something as good.
Not sure if my "ho, hum" feeling to the book was due to the writing or the reading of it. The reader of the book did ok, but she made the main character seem very whiny. I don't think I would have read her that way and maybe would have enjoyed the story a bit more.
It did have me guessing most of the way through as to the "mystery", though there was a little crack in the window at one point in the book that had me thinking how it was going to end up, but not completely sure.

Pretty convoluted stuff; but I liked it!

Sure hope book 2 is as good or better! Mysterious is good. Good to the end!

the ending is awesome

Love the endings twist its such a surprise to film out that.is there going to be a 2 book?

very intense

very intense kept me on the edge of the seat very good narrating what can I say very good I don't I do not think there was a lot of swearing at all or any decent and most ways which I really appreciate but excellent story

Just OK

The setting and story are great but the constant whining of the protagonist gets annoying. Not this authors best work.

Love the potential of this series.

Although the idea of her constant fixation on the scarred man is annoying; I can see where Miss Carter is going with this and I applaud it and can't wait for it to reach it's potential. The first book is about our young heroine finding her truth and the next will be about her finding her strength. I hope that she paces it though, it got a little cloudy at the end of this first installment but I highly recommend it because I can see quite the story forming here. She doesn't give away too much, really makes you hunger for it. Love it. Some may not but that's only cause they are not looking hard enough.
