Two Lies and a Spy by Kat Carlton: 16 year old Kari and her little brother Charlie are the children of US super spies for the Agency. When she is given the Code Black signal they immediately go into hiding and discover her parents have been declared traitors. Kari and Charlie team up with Rita (best friend and hacker), Kale (best friend and master martial artist), Luke (Kari's crush), Lacey (Luke's annoying, popular big sister) and finally an annoying (yet cute!) tag along named Evan. Breaking into the Agency to rescue her mom seems to be a good first step to clearing their parents names...

Opinion: 

Rating: Reread it Twice
I enjoyed Two Lies and A Spy, but I had a few problems with certain parts of the book. I desired additional information on the Agency. I knew practically nothing about the Agency. The only things I knew were the leader and two spies in the organization. I needed more background such as who found it and why. I also thought there could have been smoother transitions in the earlier scenes. I just didn't quite get some of the beginning because of that. Most of it was explained in the middle, so all was resolved. Kat only mentioned Kale in a small portion of the beginning, so I didn't think he was a main character until he popped in in the middle. The story line and the characters were intriguing, but I just didn't love it as much as I thought I would. I liked it though and would be open to a sequel option that seems to be left open at the end.
