Ally has done it again! This is another amazing book that gears up readers for some great spy adventures ahead! This book doesn't deal too much with the romance end that the last book gave us, this one is action packed and leaves us going who what where when how and why, due to some amazing action scenes. Just another great book in the series and I can't wait for the next one!

DON'T JUDGE A GIRL BY HER COVER is the third novel in the Gallagher Girl spy series.

Cammie is invited to Boston over summer break to join Macey and her family for a political convention where Macey's father is to accept the Vice President's candidacy. Both girls are excited for a fun time.

What they didn't bargain for was a kidnapping attempt. On first appearance, the kidnappers seem to be after Preston, the son of the Presidential candidate. But after replaying the attack in her mind, Cammie is positive it was Macey they were after.

After the kidnapping attempt, they return to school and Macey is put under tighter Secret Service protection. But due to the secretive nature of the Gallagher Academy, the agents selected have to be carefully screened. Cammie is thoroughly shocked when the head of the detail shows up and it's none other than Aunt Abby.

Cammie hasn't seen Abby since her father died, and has so many questions for her. But there are other things that need answered, as well. Namely, why would anyone want to kidnap Macey? So begins junior year for Cammie and her close friends Macey, Liz, and Bex.

When Macey has to attend campaign functions, the other girls find cunning ways to sneak out and accompany her. To confuse Cammie even more, she encounters Zach from the previous term at not just one, but multiple locations. What is up with that?

As with the previous books in the series, DON'T JUDGE A GIRL BY HER COVER has much intrigue and spy technology throughout. Ms. Carter suspects that there may be up to six books in the Gallagher Girl series, and DON'T JUDGE A GIRL BY HER COVER does a lot of development for future installments. There is a lot of action and bruising that occurs in this story, but more than anything it sets up a lot of background information for forthcoming novels.

My Thoughts: We are once again introduced to the girls and their adventures! Except this time, there is real danger! They are not so much learning now, they are actually helping their friend out! Macey is in real trouble! Someone wants to hurt her and will do anything to achieve this goal!
I don't want to give too many spoilers for this one! You just need to read it if you haven't. Read the other two first! So, what is the symbol Cammie knows she has seen before? Why does someone want to hurt Macey? I really enjoyed reading this book. But I really wanted to see Zach more. Is he on Cammie's side or is he really working for the enemy? He was always around the corner somewhere but I just felt like I wanted a little more romance between him and Cammie. I wanted more talking, more kissing, and more interaction! The best part of this book was the ending! It made me want to read the next book which does not come out for half a year! I was surprised at the ending. I was not expecting that to happen! I just really hope Zach is around more in the next book!

Overall: Really liked it but wanted more Zach Zach Zach.
