Welcome to Litsy!

Layers and layers of intrigue topped off with an excellent unreliable narrator. I think Grace is Carter's darkest-humored heroine, which is an interesting change from her other books, too. The amateur teenage espionage crew grows, as well! #reread #yalit #yathriller

A snarky heroine. Amazing friends. Mystery. Political intrigue. Yes, please, and thank you!

I've come to love Ally Carter's books for their humor, sass, intrigue, and surprising twists. All Fall Down did not disappoint! I found the beginning slow as the story was set up, however, knowing Ally Carter, I imagine the next books will only get better.

My rating: 4 stars

And now music for Noel, book for big sis, and audiobook for me, while hopefully grouchy little sis gets a car nap in. 😉

I smile. “I wouldn‘t dream of getting into any trouble.” I lie.

Dangerous psychos always seem so normal.

There is nothing they can do to fix me. And, for them, that is the hardest thing of all.

sometimes. I am my own worst enemy. As if I need another.

“Bad people do not like loose ends.”

that‘s the thing about being the girl who‘s spent years convincing the world she‘s not afraid of anything: at some point, someone is going to find out you‘re afraid of everything.

she looks like she wants to cry. I know the feeling. There is nothing worse than remembering.

guilt isn‘t smart. It isn‘t logical. It doesn‘t only live in the places it belongs.

Every girl thinks about growing up in a palace. Few ever ponder living in a cage.

The dark days… they always pass.

One more mystery. One more set of lies. But I‘m not lying to myself anymore, and that has to count for something.

guilt and shame have been weighing on me for three years, and the only thing I can do is pave over them with rage.

history almost always repeats itself. And it is almost always written by men.

“Every army in the world knows that knowledge is power –information, the world‘s most lethal weapon. The women keep the secrets, my dear. We have always kept the secrets.”

There are some things that, once remembered, you can never quite forget.

Never reviewed my last audiobook - loving this series - all the revealed secrets. This second book had a huge cliffhanger and I'm on the third already.

Ahh. Intrigue. Lies. Guilt. History. People trying to do the right thing but kinda making the whole thing worse. I read the first book ages ago, and (the library was real slow to get the sequel) the details are a bit hazy but most of it came back. This felt like the set up book - hope the next one arrives soon cause I suspect things are about to get *wild*

What an awesome dedication!

Oh hey Noah.

We are what became of the daughters.

See How They Run had a bit of a rough start, but got really good in the middle. I was excited to start, as I had really enjoyed All Fall Down.
