I wa...Another wonderfully written review, Keertana! I was hesitant about reading ALSO KNOWN AS since I heard mixed things, but I also loved Benway's previous works, so I honestly wasn't sure if I wanted to pick this one up or not. But your review has wholeheartedly convinced me to do so!! This one sounds OH so fun, and each character relationship that Maggie has seems genuine and really well developed! Roux seems like the most interesting secondary character, and the romance with Jesse seems like one I'd like a lot (thank goodness for a drama-free one!). Something as simple as going through the nuances of high school is ironic yet so true, and I'd love to read about Maggie's experience as a spy turned high school student. Definitely going to read this one soon! Thanks for your thoughts, Keertana!
