Take 5: Spies Like Us
Ever since reading The Gallagher Girls series by Ally Carter, I am obsessed with spies. In fact, since it is audio book month, I will share with you that I’d Tell You I’d Love You, But Then I’d Have to Kill You is the first audio book the Tween and I listened to in the car. We both loved it and I liked that it was something we could listen to together. Sometimes we sat in our driveway for a few extra minutes to finish a scene. I highly recommend this series, the Tween has gone on to purchase them all. I knew I liked that girl. And then when you are spy obsessed like me, here are a few more spy stories that you might want to read.
