It's been two years since the 39 Clues search ended. Amy and Dan have tried to go back to normal life. It hasn't been easy.
Amy's been learning how to defend herself - taking martial arts classes. She's broken out of her shell a bit and even has a boyfriend. She's kept him in the dark about the truth of her family.
Dan's had a harder time adjusting. Life seems boring. School is pointless. He has no friends -except one boy he met online. In truth - real life is tame compared to the 39 Clues search.
Unfortunately, things are about to change. The Vespers kidnap one person from each family - and Nellie. They don't harm anyone. Instead, they make an impossible demand of Amy and Dan.
Amy and Dan get the old team back together - the young ones of the family. Together they must steal a priceless piece of art from one of the most guarded museums in the world. Amy and Dan thrive on the impossible tasks, but is this one out of their league?
My Thoughts: The start of a new 39 Clues series is off to a fabulous start. It has all the crazy action and danger as the first series. Amy and Dan are a little wiser, a little tougher, and a littler more determined. I love the art heist. I love the significance of the art itself. I love how the team comes together again. I simply love this series, I'm so happy to have more adventures of Amy and Dan!!
Cover Thoughts: LOVE!

The tweens at my library can't wait for this one! This series is so popular-can you believe I haven't read them yet? I need to get on that!
ReplyDeleteI've never read any of the 39 Clues books--though they do sound like something I'd enjoy.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the review!
