I'm glad you liked this, too! I always enjoy books that incorporate humor into the story, though, so as you say, this series is a great palate cleanser between heavier books.<br /><br />Wendy @ <a href="http://www.themidnightgarden.net" rel="nofollow">The Midnight Garden</a>Wendy Darlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13471461156849725177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6652084782125897918.post-81832738678729043572014-01-19T10:49:00.484-05:002014-01-19T10:49:00.484-05:00I love the idea of the small group going rogue tog...I love the idea of the small group going rogue together-that would have been really cool!

It was fun to tag along with Maggie and her friends as they raced to figure out how to solve the mystery/problem in this book! I'm glad you enjoyed reading this one.Alexa S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13185723439360170259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6652084782125897918.post-62976445442179137862014-01-09T19:33:40.266-05:002014-01-09T19:33:40.266-05:00This series is penned by the same author who wrote...This series is penned by the same author who wrote Audrey, Wait!, and Heather highly recommends that one! I like knowing I can turn to this author when I'm in search of a fun and lighthearted read. I need to create a bookshelf on my GR account dedicated to books similar to this one. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Lauren! Very clear and concise work! :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12274355208601978550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6652084782125897918.post-441004845441394512014-01-09T08:10:31.268-05:002014-01-09T08:10:31.268-05:00I did like the first book, but it disappointed me ...I did like the first book, but it disappointed me because like you, I compared it to Heist Society and I expected MORE.

I'm not sure this is my type of read as the characters seem really young, but I'm glad you found it enjoyable! Wonderful review. :)Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16682335183798720529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6652084782125897918.post-56900579384482912452014-01-08T12:32:51.866-05:002014-01-08T12:32:51.866-05:00I've found Benway's books to be a lot of f...I've found Benway's books to be a lot of fun too and, like you said, low on angst or romantic drama. I just haven't been drawn to this series though, so I'm not planning on reading it soon unless I'm in the mood. On the other hand, I did read Death Sworn, so expect an e-mail about it in your inbox later today (when I get home from school, lol). As always, though, a thorough review, Lauren! :)Keertanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01071392026876644282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6652084782125897918.post-36667263932477719142014-01-08T10:30:48.946-05:002014-01-08T10:30:48.946-05:00I was definitely thinking Heist Society as I was r...I was definitely thinking Heist Society as I was reading this review, and even though you felt those books were better I'm glad these are still really fun, light reads. Sometimes all I want is to be entertained and be left with a smile on my face by the end, and it seems like this series does that for sure. I'm keeping these on my "read after a really dark, soul-scarring book" list:)Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14199685365145765394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6652084782125897918.post-68681731730951289732014-01-08T09:49:14.587-05:002014-01-08T09:49:14.587-05:00I adore Roux...I think she was my favorite aspect ...I adore Roux...I think she was my favorite aspect of the first book. I have this for review, but I think I'm going to opt for the audio since the author is narrating again. She just does such a fabulous job of bringing her characters to life. I haven't read Ally Carter's books yet -- though Sunny keeps pressuring me, too :) -- so I have no comparison, which is probably best since you like those books better, anyway. Super excited to hear the angst factor is so low...it definitely *sounds* like the perfect palate cleanser.starryeyedjenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15841350560201331032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6652084782125897918.post-13623130208014678142014-01-08T08:54:49.127-05:002014-01-08T08:54:49.127-05:00Low on angst?!?

I mean, Nikita isn't like all about spies, but it sure does the job well by fitting somewhat into the category and I adored and loved that show so much. I really want to start The Callagher Girls series and I hope to give AKA a try as well. I really appreciate the fact that these books are just plain fun and youthful, plus going rogue sounds like a helluva lot fun in itself haha. I think I'll start with Ally Carter's books before going into these, but I know that I can trust your opinion and I wouldn't mind trying these books as well. Thanks for your honest thoughts, Lauren :)Siirihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18265532869057616598noreply@blogger.com
