& In this funky, fun new series, meet Toby Klein, a rebel hacker who hangs on the fringes of high school. But after being issued an invitation to be on the varsity cheerleading squad, her life is about to change….big time. Having always thought of the cheerleaders as ditzy, dumb blonds, Toby is amazed to discover that they are an elite group of CIA operatives. Of course they are perfect because who would suspect a cheerleader? So Toby undergoes a Stage 6 makeover and becomes “one of them.” Suddenly she is popular beyond belief and going on covert missions. Toby likes the spy aspect much more than the cheering/ popularity part, but she slowly gets a handle on it. Before she knows it she cannot imagine life before The Squad (she freaks because she thinks she is turning into a true cheerleader at one point). This is a great mix of action/adventure and high school drama. Barnes does a great job of mixing the action and romance/drama of high school. Once you think about it, the cover of cheerleaders as operatives makes so much sense. By picking the loner girl to turn into a cheerleader, Barnes lends a great deal of irony to the story. It is a great new series, but of course once more I have read the advanced reading copies and so will have to wait for them to come out which isn’t til April and then wait even longer than that to actually see more in the series!!!!!
