The Squad: Killer Spirit by Jennifer Lynne Barnes

The Squad: Killer Spirit is the second edition in The Squad Series by Jennifer Lynn Barnes, a series of books about secret agent cheerleaders. Unlikely cheerleader Toby Klein is preparing for homecoming where she might be actually become the first 10th grade homecoming queen. Oddly, she is more afraid of that than she is of the dangerous mission that the squad is faced with. But when things go wrong, the squad has to make some tough decisions. Can they do it, or will it be a flop?

I thought The Squad: Killer Spirit was a great novel that had a good mix of two things you would never think went together, Spying and Cheerleading. The author did a great job intertwining the two, without making it seem as she was trying hard to not make the squad's cover blow. I loved the book so much that now I have to read the first one, The Squad: Perfect Cover, to see how it all started. The characters are all very interesting and the adventure in the book was captivating. Definetely a page turner for everyone. I am really looking forward to reading other books by Jennifer Lynne Barnes!
