I, Q: The White House

I, Q: The White House by Roland Smith

Summary (from book jacket)
In Book Two: The White House, readers are taken on another thrilling caper.  But it's going to be even more difficult for Q and Angela to sort out the "good guys" from the "bad guys" when the new playing field is 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

Personal Thoughts
I enjoyed this book.  It has a few twists I didn't see coming.  It was a little predictable at times, but I was still guessing at who the moles in the White House were and if they would actually succeed in whatever terrorist attempt they would be making.  It was a great follow up to Book One.  My one complaint is that this felt very much like it was written only as set-up for the third novel.  The ending, while complete for the book, requires a conclusion, which I'm assuming we'll see in the third installment.

I, Q

I, Q by Roland Smith

Summary (from Booklist)
Thirteen-year-old Q (short for Quest) has just gained a stepfather and stepsister—his mother, singer-songwriter Blaze Munoz, has married singer-songwriter Roger Tucker, and their new band, Match, is set to start a yearlong tour. Roger’s 15-year-old daughter, Angela is, like Q, less than thrilled at the speed of their parents’ romance, and both teens have mixed feelings about the prospect of spending a year together on a tour bus. But there’s no time for grousing: the teens discover they are being followed, and given Angela’s mother’s past history as a Secret Service agent, that’s not a good thing. The appearance of Boone, an old roadie friend of their parents, only keeps the mysteries building. Q’s skills as a magician save the teens more than once, while Angela’s knowledge of martial arts and spy games will fascinate readers.

Personal Thoughts
I really enjoyed this book!  It kept me guessing and turning the pages.  I recommend this to anyone who enjoyed Percy Jackson or is looking for a Spy/Detective novel.  I'm looking forward to reading the next book in the series, The White House.
