I'm not quite sure how I feel about this one. I like the idea, but I'm on the fence about the main character. It was interesting enough that I'll read the next one, and see how it progresses.
Its amazing to me that so many authors write dystopian fantasies where it seems that people of color apparently don't survive the 'apocalypse'.
That said, this is a good one--it's nice to find a YA withOUT a love triangle.

You know how some authors run out of material, and stretch three chapters worth of story into a whole book? This is it.

Pro:
This is a very clean book, barely any cussing and appropriate for younger teens.
Con:
Despite what the title says, this book is NOT about spying. Any and all mentions of spying were glossed over and did not mention many facts.
MC cheated on the man she was seeing with a friend from childhood. I don't care what anyone says, but this is not ok.
Still on that last point -- The love triangle was not my favorite in the least.
This book may have been a miss for me, but if you're a fan of historical fiction, it may be worth a try.
Rating: 2/5
Language: s*** one time, d*** one or two times
Romance: a kiss
Spiritual: characters believe in God
Violence: set during the American Revolution but not detailed, MC's stepfather attempts to harm her
