I'm rereading gallagher girls and can I just say I'd Tell You I'd Love You But Then I'd Have to Kill You is so funny if you think about it from Josh's perspective.
Like you're just vibing at a fair and then all the sudden you see a girl reaching her hand into a trashcan to grab a soda bottle, you make eye contact and the first thing she says is "I have a cat." You have a silly little conversation about her cat who loves bottles, and learn she is homeschooled for religious reasons and then you leave thinking she's cute.
Then you run into her a few more times including at outside your neighbors surprise party, that she claims she was going to but then never enters. You ask this girl how to keep in touch because you like her, and she says no phone or email, leave notes in this wall instead???? You try to figure out what church this "homeschooled for religious reasons and doesn't have a phone" girl goes to and you have no idea.
You start dating her-still messaging through the wall- she never lets you take her home, she gets really confused when you give her a present on her birthday, almost like she forgot it was her birthday?
Then your friend claims that your girlfriend isn't actually homeschooled, she actually goes to the super exclusive boarding school for rich girls in your home town. When you catch her outside the school, she breaks up with you, claiming she was bored and that's why she dated you and then she IMMEDIATELY GETS KIDNAPPED.
So you do what any normal person would do, you call the cops. you try and rescue her and she's mad about it??? Claims it was a school thing??? And now she's fighting people off and ziplinning away while saying she never had a cat???
So your next rational move is to steal a forklift and drive it through the wall to save your girlfriend from whatever craziness she's involved in.
Then you're taken back to the boarding school, learn its actually a school for spies, your girlfriend is a spy and has lied to you about every single detail about herself, even down to her birthday and her dad being dead. Literally nothing you know about this girl except for her first name is true, and you've been dating for months.
And then her mom gives you special tea that makes you forget everything since she dumped you and you immediately start dating your girl best friend.
Like this poor man lmao

“I wanted a thousand different things as we stood there, but most of all, I wanted the girl who had been beside me in Boston to turn and realize that I was beside her now. ... “This feels like a safe house.” She finally turned to look at me. “Doesn't it feel safe, Cam?” “Yeah, Macey,” I said softly. “It does.”

No matter how many times I read these books the dialogue in books 4 through 6 still sends me absolutely feral.

Ally about switching from YA and middle grade to adult: “I don’t have time to make a whole new fan base!”
“Ally, you don’t get it, it’s the same fan base.”
As a Gallagher Girl for over a decade (happy 25th birthday to me lol) I can’t emphasize that sentiment enough. I’ve loved getting to grow up with Ally, Cammie, and my fellow Gallagher Girls. It’s so special to have an author from your teen years, look at their now grown up fan base that has stuck around, and say “You know what. I’m gonna do something for them. They deserve it.”
At the end of this event, she thanked us all for being her readers. I definitely feel like Ally Carter raised me 😂 so, Ally, thank you for that. Thank you for everything. This book has been so special and I can’t wait for everyone to get to read it. ♥️

read in 2023: the blonde identity by ally carter
Here’s the thing about waking up with no memory in the middle of the night, in the middle of the street, in the middle of Paris: at least you’re waking up in Paris.

Cause like most Gallagher Girl fans (like myself) who found the books in childhood and grew up with them are now adults

In OSOT, when cam comes back, zach says it's different, and he seem a bit distance quite a while, with him & bex always together. Do you think he's also mad at cam that's why? Or something else?
Oh my poor Zachy boy…
Zach’s mad. He’s furious with Cam. He’s pissed at her.
But not for the reasons we think.
Zach is the one who gave Cammie the idea of running away. He said so in OGSY. He told Cam that they should run. That they would keep each other safe. And Cam told him no. Cammie told him that that was not an option.
And what does she do? She leaves without him and she runs.
Zach doesn’t know where she is. She didn’t leave a note for anyone, she didn’t say goodbye, she’s just gone.
Zach has nobody. He can’t go home. He can’t go to his mom. He can’t go back to school. He doesn’t know if Cammie is even alive until they find her in Switzerland. And during that time he has Bex. And Bex is the only constant in his life that summer. She is the only one keeping his feet on the ground and keeping him from doing something stupid. Because if he can’t find Cammie, what does he have left? Joe’s in a coma for goodness sake.
And then to make matters worse, Cam comes back and she’s different. She can’t remember anything from that summer. He doesn’t even want to think about what she could’ve endured. He doesn’t want to process that. Between the sessions with Dr. Steve, the weapons incident, the memory loss, the fact that the Circle is still out there…
He tried to find Cam and he failed.
Things are different between them and while Cam is trying to process that and her missing summer, Zach is trying to process the fact that anything could have happened to Cammie and there was nothing he could do to stop that.

“I suppose a lot of teenage girls feel invisible sometimes, like they just disappear. Well, that's me—Cammie the Chameleon. But I'm luckier than most because, at my school, that's considered cool. I go to a school for spies.”

"The more he thinks about it, the more it comes down to the same two options he always runs into: Joe or Rachel. Except this time, the answer ain’t so obvious."
-Full Circle, 1989
I am so in my feelings about this line in particular because it struck me that Matthew Morgan loves these two people so much that he walks this tightrope for the rest of his life. His two soul mates.
He quite literally goes back and forth between the two of them until someone ends the turn on Joe. Just how it started.
Matt in all of his love, takes these two makes them his top priorities. Shows them a lot about true love, which softens Rachel and assures Joe. Matt waltzes into their lives with all the sweetness and promises of rising sun and is torn away like one of those infamous Midwestern tornados.
What's left are two people without their soul mate. Both Joe and Rachel are no longer being loved like they were. Neither is the priority of someone's affection. Connections? Gone. There's essentially a "Matt shaped hole" in their hearts.
Maybe he knew he wouldnt be around forever, so he probably nailed it into both of them that when he was gone theyd need someone. Rachel was allowed to fall in love again. Joe was allowed to fall in love with whoever. That kind of thing?
Matt, in his final act of kindness, gives them one another. Both of them hold one of the last pieces of Matt. They miss that Matt like love. Not that they know it, but they are capable of loving like he did, forever touched by his heart.They slowly realize that they had the same soul mate. In their own way, Joe and Rachel are made for one another......by Matthew Morgan. They are soul mates in their own special way because of him. Ugh. Why.

Can we just fangirl over Blonde Identify for a minute because WOW. Ally Carter strikes again. Do Saywer and Zoe give you a little Townsend/Abby vibes? What was your favorite part of the book. Just wow. Ally needs to write about spies for the rest of my life.
Um, we absolutely can. Ally Carter shaped my current spy genre obsession and it was so comfy to return to her style for this particular type of story. When I opened my box and saw the plaid spine 😭😭😭 She totally gets it. I will say that I didn't have one particular favorite part—rather, I was fond of the hit-after-hit lineup of witty and zingy lines throughout the entire book. There were some lines where I just had to stop and shove my face into a pillow, because they were just that good. The characters had so much chemistry, it was phenomenal. And there was one part, in particular, that felt like classic Ally Carter, but I will put it under a cut to avoid spoilers:
If I had a nickle for every time Ally Carter's twists contained a handsome MI6 agent that looks like the love interest, and is later revealed to be his father, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot. But it's weird that it happened twice. Anyway, loved it.
