Where I Fall Down Waiting For a Book

I could start this by ranting about a book I've read before, but all I can think about right now is the book that comes out Tuesday.


All Fall Down by Ally Carter.  I pre-ordered it awhile ago, so I'm obviously not getting it ON Tuesday, but I will be eagerly awaiting it.


Ally Carter is one of my favorite authors.  Her Gallagher Girls series made me wish I was some genius who'd aced those stupid state tests growing up.  I mean, Liz was my hero, one klutzy girl to another.  I didn't necessarily want to be a spy, with all the torture and incredible action scenes, but working the research track would've made my life complete.  Then, she went and wrote the Heist Society series, and I fell in love with the other side of the law.  White collar crimes are so impressive when they're done correctly.


And the GUYS.  The guy characters in her books make me swoon just thinking about them.  I can't even... Gosh I think I just fainted. Or started crying.  I'm not sure which is more pathetic...  Hale and Zach are life.


Anywaaaaaaaay, All Fall Down is the first book in her new Embassy Row series, and while I have grown older than all her characters, I don't think that's ever a reason to stop reading.  I haven't read it yet (I never like reading things early, even ARCs, because I feel like I'm cheating, which I'm well aware is stupid), so I'm carefully avoiding all spoilers.  I'm so excited for this book, and I'm especially excited for this series.  Ally Carter says Grace is her favorite character she's ever written, and that simply excites me more than anyone could know.
A synopsis can be found here.


I can't wait to love this book as much as I love everything Ally Carter writes. 


Manda, out.
