All fall down: Review This is the first book i read by ally carter and I really loved it. It is set in the fictional country that had embassies of all the different countries and it takes up this long stretch of road and all of the embassies of children that live in them. This book follows the lead character named Grace and she is haunted by her mothers death even though everyone claims it was an accident. This belief as well as other instances like somebody trying to kill the prime minster lead to a very complicated and interesting story. It was really hard to put down this book because I wanted to know what was going to happen. I loved all the various kids we met and how simple actions can really effect thing drastically. It was both a self discovery novel but also a finding the truth novel. I really loved both the setting and the characters. Can't wait for the next one.

Go figure! Lucky for me, my local independent bookstore had a copy of All Fall Down on sale so I scooped it up! Finally... after years of oggling... I get to enjoy an Ally Carter book! And honestly, it was a fun ride! This felt like a younger end of the YA spectrum but was extremely fun! It's full of thrills and drama and isn't packed full of romance (although I'm sure a romantic subplot will come later on in this series - there seems to be a good set up for that). Grace's Mother died when she was younger, so she has been living with her brother and Dad. Lucky for her, they ship her off to live with her Grandfather, a powerful ambassador living on Embassy Row. While she's there, Grace gets into all sorts of hijinks and makes new friends, but she thinks she found the man she believes killed her Mother... but everyone is insistent she wasn't murdered. Things aren't going to be easy. This feels like a very random but fun YA pick for me. It's an easy read with a quick pace and a great mystery. It didn't leave us readers with a big cliffhanger but definitely left us knowing there's more to come if we want to know the full story. This book was very engaging and I enjoyed it! I hope to find more books by Ally Carter since this was just all around fun. It felt very basic at times but I also enjoyed how simple the book was. Three out of five stars. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
