The problem? Alex herself is a clumsy, thoroughly average girl! Alex is eighteen now, and she's found a definite niche: the United States government uses her and her duplicates for top-secret espionage work! But there's a catch: Alex has to be within half a mile of her duplicate, or the duplicate zaps back to her home dimension. Consequently. Alex is always stuck being her own sidekick, as the idealized version of her gats all the recognition and credit from their government handlers.

Answer 2

A girly Spy book i read was:
I'd Tell you, but then Is have to kill you
By: Ally Carter... here is idea:
I’d Tell You I Love You, But Then I’d Have to Kill You is Carter’s first YA book. It takes place at The Gallagher Academy, which, to all appearances is just your typical all-girls boarding school. Except for the fact that it’s totally not - it’s spy school. Cammie is a sophmore at the school, comes from a family of spies, and is known as a chameleon as she has a tendency to become “invisible.” Until a normal boy from a normal neighbourhood spots her, that is.



It consists of teenagae stuff, ya know.. boys.. then intertwines spies.. there is a sequal too.

Answer 3

James Patterson's Maximum Ride series. There are three books : Schools's out forever

Answer 4

Here are some young adult books that I COULD NOT put down:

Touching Spirit Bear, by Ben Mikaelsen is about a kid who is so angry because he parents are jerks. But he takes it out on a kid, and almost kills him. For his punishment, he gets into an alternative program that puts him alone on an island in Alaska.
He is attacked by a bear and almost dies.

Trigger, by Susan Vaught is about a kid who is recovering from trying to kill himself. He is also trying to remember WHY he tried to kill himself. It's both very serious, and hilarious at times, because the injury affected his brain so that he blurts out whatever he is thinking.

Samurai Shortshop, by Alan Gratz, Dorky title, but a head gets chopped off in the first chapter. Great book.

Code Orange, by Caroline Cooney A kid is exposed to small pox and has to figure out what to do. Caroline Cooney writes a lot of fast moving books.

Another great book is Parallel Journeys, by Eleanor H. Ayer With Helen Waterford And Alfons Heck.
It is a double autobiography. Helen Waterford survived Auschwitz, Alfons Heck was in the Hitler Youth and German Air force. They take turns telling their stories. It is incredible.
