Spy School Goes South, is a book where spies, action, and laughs meet a gone wrong infiltration trip in Mexico. This book is for sure not short when it comes to entertaining the reader. This book definitely has to be my favorite book of the series, and one of the reasons I love this book so much is because you never know what could be coming next. There are so many twists and turns in this book, but it also incorporates laughs, making this the perfect read!

Spy School: Secret Service by Stuart Gibbs, is one of my favorite books of the bunch. Just one of the many reasons why I love this book is because this time, Ben, and the gang dive further into the real world and do what a lot of kids used to dream of doing: being a spy in the White House! This book also is so well plotted out, that it makes it feel as if it is actually happening in the real world. This book is a must read for mystery or thriller lovers!

Spy Camp is the 2nd addition to the Spy School series, and this book is amazing! One of the many reasons I love the book is because the tables can turn so quickly, and something you might never had suspected to happen, would happen. This book is also so enjoyable to read because sometimes the book will foreshadow, and will drop hints in the book, allowing you to also act like you really are an actual spy, and solve this whimsical mystery.

His mother, Patricia Noah, a Black South African, and his father, Robert, a white Swiss German, dared to defy the oppressive laws of the time, which labeled their son’s existence as “a crime”.
