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!

Evil Spy School is only the 3rd installment of the Spy School series, but this book is so amazing. It goes into detail so much, it makes you feel as if you are actually in the Spy School! Another reason I love this book is that the characters in the book are so amazing and all have their own personality, and aren’t just irrelevant.

The tale also is very unpredictable, and many different things can go haywire in the blink of an eye.

Whale Done is the 8th addition to the series of FunJungle by Stuart Gibbs, where adventure meets animals, mystery, zoology, and even ecological themes, as well as enough tension to make it fun. This is a quick-paced adventure, which makes it very enjoyable to read. Something is always happening, and it's hard to see what's coming next. I love this book because not only does this book focus on Teddy and the mysteries, but also the characters and the book's depth in this universe is amazing!
