                 I am reading Out of Sight, Out of Time by Ally Carter. It is the fifth book of the Gallager Girls series. I have finished the book. In the first chapter the main character, Cammie (who goes to a school for spies), is rescued from the Alps where she woke up after being gone for around 4 months. At the end of the previous book, Cammie left her school where her mom is headmaster, to discover who is tring to kidnap and/or kill her. She knows an ancient terrorist group called the Circle of Cavan is after her but is doesn't know why. She returnes to school where everyone stares at her and her friends are distant. She tries to start over and forget what happens. Its kind of easy for considering the last thing she remember is leaving school at the start of summer. Now Cammie has been shot at by the Circle, so she now knows that they don't need her alive anymore. She discovers that over the summer she was in Rome, so her, two of her friends, and her Aunt decide to go to Italy to figure out why she went there. Once in Rome, she goes to a bank where she discovers she started an safety box. In her box is her dad's journal that she thought she lost. Later she discovers there is list that has a name of all the leaders of the circle. She finds a map that tells her the list is in a manison in Ireland, so they go there to find it. Once she finds it, she is attacked by the circle, and the list falls into the ocean. Back at school, she realized that shes known the list all along, and on that list is her teacher. He brain washes her and she is going to junp off the roof when her mom and friends save her.
                   I think the book is good so far because there are questions that still need to be answered and that keeps you reading. I think this idea of a book is also good because the idea of spies is interesting to the reader. I believe the writer wrote the book because she has a passion for writing and so when the idea came to her to write it, she did. I think this because on her website it says she always wanted to be and writer, then later the idea came to her while misinterpreting a t.v. show. The theme I fell while rading is family and safety. The main charater left school to answer her questions, but she didn't bring along her friends or family. She risked her own safety so her friends wouldn't get hurt and now they are annoyed she left them and angry with her because they feel she was being selfish. I think the best charater is obviously the main character, Cammie. She has faults unlike how her peers seem, and she is changing thoughout the series, so it makes her interesting. She is much more mature now and believes she can do things on her own now.
"For the first time in months, my three best friends and I were alone. How many hours had we spent wolking those halls together in the early morning or middle of the night? Sneaking. Planning. Testing our limits and ourselves. But standing there, we were all a little too perfect. It was as if we were strangers, trying to make that good impression.
'Stop staring at me like that,' I told them when it finally became too much
'Like how?' Liz asked.
'Like you didn't think you'd ever see me again,' I said.
'You don't get it do you?' Bex's voice was more hiss than whisper. 'Until forty-eight hours ago, we didn't.'
I think that quote is important because it explains the feel of the book. I question I have is will Cammie ever get her memory back? and Will the Circle of Cavan kill her now that they don't need her alive anymore? Will more double agents be discovered in the next book?
