Action， adventure， and humor run as high as ever in this latest installment of a popular series， but unlike the other books， this one takes a sudden and wonderful twist。It's test time， and like so many other kids （even those who aren't spies）， Ben is anything but thrilled。 But toughing those tests is soon the least of his worries as a rumor hits the internet， and Ben is accused of being at the heart of the latest conspiracy theory。 It's open season on Ben's life as a huge reward is offered to an Action， adventure， and humor run as high as ever in this latest installment of a popular series， but unlike the other books， this one takes a sudden and wonderful twist。It's test time， and like so many other kids （even those who aren't spies）， Ben is anything but thrilled。 But toughing those tests is soon the least of his worries as a rumor hits the internet， and Ben is accused of being at the heart of the latest conspiracy theory。 It's open season on Ben's life as a huge reward is offered to anyone， who can kill him。 In a high-tension attempt to stop the lunacy， Ben takes off to find his arch-enemy， but with everything going on， who knows what will happen next。This was such a refreshing wind into the Spy School world。 The author has stepped away from the usual scheme， which has dominated this series， and taken a new plot route， while keeping the action scenes as exciting as before and even adding to the humor and atmosphere。 Ben has more to deal with in new directions， and that while still handling his age old enemy， Murray。There will be those out there， who will criticize this read， thanks to it's twist into the realm of internet and disinformation。。。just because it is what it is。 But for the normal reader （who stays down-to-earth）， it's clear that this adds to the story， doesn't mean anything political， and actually opens up the doors for readers to realize that everything on the internet should be investigated， considered， and re-checked more than once because。。。well， the internet is the internet and can't be taken at face value。 So， kudos to the author for attacking that bag of worms without attacking it。Fans of this series are in for another treat as they accompany Ben on yet another exciting adventure， meet old characters as well as one or two new， fever for Ben as he battles one hurdle after the other， and laugh more than every now and then the entire way through。 I received a DRC and was glad to see the exciting change。 。。。more

Thanks so much to Stuart Gibbs and Edelweiss for an eARC in exchange for an honest review！Another fantastic addition in the Spy School series！ In this latest installment， Ben finds himself caught in the middle of a conspiracy against him， engineered by none other than his nemesis， albeit a fairly unintimidating one， Murray Hill。 Gibbs once again outdoes himself， crafting together action and adventure， Ben's hilarious commentary， and some of the more touching sentiments of the bonds between him a Thanks so much to Stuart Gibbs and Edelweiss for an eARC in exchange for an honest review！Another fantastic addition in the Spy School series！ In this latest installment， Ben finds himself caught in the middle of a conspiracy against him， engineered by none other than his nemesis， albeit a fairly unintimidating one， Murray Hill。 Gibbs once again outdoes himself， crafting together action and adventure， Ben's hilarious commentary， and some of the more touching sentiments of the bonds between him and his friends。 Murray has created his biggest attack on Ben yet - it's not just business， it's personal。Though mentioned in my last review of Spy School at Sea， it's worth saying twice - Erica's character development throughout the series has been。。。 stunning to see。 From the first book through Project X， it's the subtle observations from Ben that make all the difference to hint to her true nature， and this novel was no exception。I loved how in this book there was discussion of some real-life issues that still have extremely corporeal influence over the media today - conspiracies may not be real， but their impact is great。 Thanks to Stuart Gibbs for another amazing novel。 。。。more

Another solid entry into the Spy School series！ I think the "evil plot" is particularly important in this one。 Murray is using fringe groups and conspiracy theorists on the Internet in his pursuit of revenge on Ben。 The reader sees just how easy it is for lies and misinformation to spread。 While there are some silly and ridiculous elements to this， the discussion of why it works is essential to readers in the target age groups。 As a librarian， I really appreciate the ability to use this as part Another solid entry into the Spy School series！ I think the "evil plot" is particularly important in this one。 Murray is using fringe groups and conspiracy theorists on the Internet in his pursuit of revenge on Ben。 The reader sees just how easy it is for lies and misinformation to spread。 While there are some silly and ridiculous elements to this， the discussion of why it works is essential to readers in the target age groups。 As a librarian， I really appreciate the ability to use this as part of a discussion on reliable sources and misinformation。 The action scenes are as fantastic as always！ Highly recommended for grades 4 and up。eARC provided by publisher via Edelweiss 。。。more

I really like the Spy School series！ I was very excited to receive and ARC for the latest book in the series。 I also think this was my favorite one so far。So Spy School in a nutshell is about Ben who was recruited to what he thought was a math and science school but was actually a spy school。 They were using him to flush out a mole and since he survived the ordeal they couldn’t let him go back to regular school so they keep him…lol。Ben pretty much accidently gets the bad guy every time with the I really like the Spy School series！ I was very excited to receive and ARC for the latest book in the series。 I also think this was my favorite one so far。So Spy School in a nutshell is about Ben who was recruited to what he thought was a math and science school but was actually a spy school。 They were using him to flush out a mole and since he survived the ordeal they couldn’t let him go back to regular school so they keep him…lol。Ben pretty much accidently gets the bad guy every time with the help of Erica who is very good at being a spy because her whole family is made up of spies and a few other friends。 He now has a nemisis Murray and in this latest one Murray wants to get rid of him once and for all so he puts a hit out on him and has all the assasins out there trying to kill Ben， but that is not it， he also put out on conspiracy networks some things about Ben so he has a bunch of nuts after him too。So this one is packed full of a lot of action with everyone trying to keep Ben alive as they also try and find out where Murray is and make him call it all off。 They are always packed full of humor some of it can be kind of cheesy but overall it’s fun。I recommend this for adults as well as kids。 🙂 。。。more

Gibbs flips the game boardThanks to NetGalley and Simon and Schuster Canada for an advanced review copy of Spy School Project X。 Spy School novels have a formula。 We have Ben Ripley， a gifted kid who achieves excellent results by not being stupid， Ben's friends who are well-intentioned and sometimes competent， and the ever-expanding dysfunctional Hale family made up of the World's worst spies， who believe themselves to be the World's best spies， including toothsome teen sisters Erica and Trixie Gibbs flips the game boardThanks to NetGalley and Simon and Schuster Canada for an advanced review copy of Spy School Project X。 Spy School novels have a formula。 We have Ben Ripley， a gifted kid who achieves excellent results by not being stupid， Ben's friends who are well-intentioned and sometimes competent， and the ever-expanding dysfunctional Hale family made up of the World's worst spies， who believe themselves to be the World's best spies， including toothsome teen sisters Erica and Trixie Hale。 Gibbs picks a setting （frequently this is the site of a vacation or a sight-seeing visit he made）， then makes up a silly James Bond-esque plot to play out there， with jokes！ The main questions one asks on picking up a new Spy School book are "Where will it happen？" and "How will character relationships change？" At the end of the previous novel （Spy School at Sea） Erica and Ben became boyfriend and girlfriend， so we were expecting to see that play out in book 10。 （And of course I'm not going to tell you what happens with that。）To me， however， the big question was what would happen to the formula。 It seemed to be getting a bit tired。 Book 8， Spy School Revolution felt decidedly "Meh。。。" to me。 Spy School at Sea recaptured a little of the magic， but still was not as funny as the first book。 Now， there was no pressing need to change the formula。 Spy School has an army of devoted followers （I am one -- I have read every one of the books） and new releases regularly rack up 4。8-star average ratings on Amazon。 Why not continue to give the readers what they so evidently want？ Why not milk this cow？Well， score one for artistic integrity！ Apparently Gibbs realized he was getting into a rut and took action to boost himself out of it。 He doesn't say exactly this， but in an Author's Note at the end he writes。。。 in the first nine Spy School books， the evil plots of the bad guys have all been riffs on the sort of ridiculous， over-the-top evil schemes of James Bond villains 。。。 But when the time came to think about book ten， I realized that there were actual， real-world issues that would make for good plots as well。 So in chapter one he blows everything up （literally）。 The Spy School novels will never be the same again。 （At least I hope not， because this is SO much better。） Now， to allay the fears of avid Spy School fans， I hasten to add that Project X is still a Spy School novel。 It still stars Ben and his friends and the Hale family， along with comically inept nemesis Murray Hill。 The result is a novel that is simultaneously much more serious and much funnier than previous Spy School novels。 It is more serious because of those real-world issues he alludes to， which， to avoid spoilers， I will not identify。 It is funnier because the jokes are more frequent and better。 I don't know why that is， but I speculate that Gibbs was enthusiastic about this new direction， and inspired to be funnier。Warning: when this is released， I predict that we will see politically motivated negative reviews on Amazon。 ;-[ 。。。more

Wow！ I was so shocked when I found out that Benjmain Ripley is going to be a superhero with special super powers。

I received a review copy from Edelweiss， and when I got it I could not put it down。 This book had way more suspense than the last nine， which made it way more enjoyable。 I really like how this book created a new future for the series due to the big changes that happened in the book。 I really enjoyed the character development， especially with Erica， and that we got to meet a new Hale。 I really appreciate how Stuart Gibbs gives each of his books its own style or theme that makes it different from I received a review copy from Edelweiss， and when I got it I could not put it down。 This book had way more suspense than the last nine， which made it way more enjoyable。 I really like how this book created a new future for the series due to the big changes that happened in the book。 I really enjoyed the character development， especially with Erica， and that we got to meet a new Hale。 I really appreciate how Stuart Gibbs gives each of his books its own style or theme that makes it different from the others。 He has done a swasome job （as Ashley might say） on this masterpiece。 。。。more
