Spy Girl #1: Secrets is full-on adventure. The characters are all so different and that makes it fun to read!! They all have their own unique personality and description. The storyline idea is imaginative and it is so interesting reading about someone's life that was much different to mine. I think that the fact that she was only 12 and a prodigy spy was really cool. The story was well written; it made me believe I was really there in the exiting adventure! It was explained well and even the smallest details were made real. I would suggest this book to anyone with a sense of adventure and who loves reading something different!

Secrets is an exciting, adventurous and mysterious story because you don't get all the information on some of the characters - you have to find out for yourself. I really like the idea of a child prodigy because it shows that Jesse has talent and is above some adults in braininess. She doesn't have to actually have an adventure before she becomes a spy to prove her cleverness. You feel kind of sorry for the prodigies and you're eager for them to find out about their past.

I really enjoyed Spy Girl #1: Secrets. It was mysterious. I was in the school library and this book was on the shelf. It stood out with all the different colours on the front cover. I hope my school orders Spy Girl #2: Fugitive. I can't wait to see what Jesse Sharpe's new adventure will be.
