I'd Tell You I Love You, But then I'd Have to Kill You
by Ally Carter

Cammie Morgan, a.k.a Chameleon, attends The Gallagher Academy, a top-secret, exclusive boarding school for girls in training to be spies. She speaks fourteen languages and takes courses like "Covert Operations" and "Culture and Assimilation." Cammie is called Chameleon because she is really good at looking normal and blending in, an essential skill for spies. She never dreams she will get the chance during her sophomore year to become the ultimate normal girl. During a covert operation into the small town of Roseville, where Gallagher is located and where everyone believes Gallagher is a snooty, spoiled rich girls school, she is approached by the best looking guy she has ever seen. So begins months of sneaking out for "research" and "undercover operations" with Josh, aided and abetted by her roommates who are totally ignorant about normal guys, except the newest roommate, Macey, who really is a spoiled rich girl. Cammie not only has to keep her true identity a secret from Josh, but she also has to avoid getting caught by all the Gallagher teachers, including her mother, Gallagher's headmistress. Not the most realistic story in the world, but lots of fun, nevertheless. I'd Tell You I Love You... is on this year's Texas Lone Star reading list. Expect to see more in this Gallagher Girls series.
