I love how its like one problem on top of another on top of another. The other books in the series have a similar writing style: spinning , swirling, raging chaos with one event tying it all together at the end. Always going out with a boom, yet always leaving behind some problems for the next book to handle. On a more specific note <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">*spoiler alert*<\/span> , I&#8217;m a little confused as to how Antonio survived so long with a 3 inch hole burned into his stomach. Unless they meant 3 inches across. I can&#8217;t believe Astrid would even think about kicking Sam off the council; Sam&#8217;s doing more than she\u2019s doing even if he is going about it the wrong way and I don&#8217;t think Sam will end up really killing Zil and his crew, though Ii do think he&#8217;ll kill Drake. And I&#8217;m a little afraid to read about what happens to the kids on the island. Who knows what Caine is gonna do when he finds out the island is still inhabited.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0I finished the book. It was extraordinary.

The main character, Madison, ends up in the afterlife and she doesn&#8217;t know how she died or really anything about herself, but she can go back to moments in her life using objects that she had lost. I think this book was really interesting because the reader doesn&#8217;t know anything about Madison until Madison knows it, so it feels like you are the main character.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/wmars.cwmars.org\/search~S11?\/tdon%27t+judge+a+girl+by+her+cover\/tdont+judge+a+girl+by+her+cover\/1%2C1%2C2%2CB\/frameset&amp;FF=tdont+judge+a+girl+by+her+cover&amp;1%2C%2C2\/indexsort=-\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" title=\"girl by her cover\" src=\"http:\/\/contentcafe2.btol.com\/ContentCafe\/Jacket.aspx?UserID=EBSCO2&amp;Password=CWMARS&amp;Return=1&amp;Type=L&amp;Value=9781423116608\" alt=\"\" width=\"163\" height=\"251\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Don&#8217;t Judge a Girl by Her Cover by Ally Carter (Gallahger Girls series)<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Reviewed by J.K, 8th grade<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There is a girl spy school where some girls get tested to the limit.
