Spy School by Stuart Gibbs. 304 p. March, 2012. 9781442421820. (Own.)
#tbt features Spy School by Stuart Gibbs. Regular readers of The Daily Booktalk will feel like it's "deja-vu all over again" this morning as the graphic novel adaptation of Spy School, featured on Monday, uses the same iconic cover. It was ten years ago on March 6, that Ben Ripley burst on the scene as our favorite hapless spy-in-training, and yesterday, I featured the tenth, or X, installment, which is due out in early September.
Stuart Gibbs is very popular at my school, and for good reason. His books are fast-paced, engaging and quite funny. While all his books circulate briskly, his Spy School series is generally checked out for the entire school year. I start the year with a full shelf, and very quickly it looks like this:
Until all the books are returned at the end of the school year.
Hear's to ten more years of Spy School!
