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!
