Its really good, although one of the more realistic concepts for ways-Alex-can-get-into-trouble was creepy. I'd reveiw it, but to explain the plot you ahve to explain the other books' plots (something I like in reveiws, but judging by the way the rest of my family, not to mention the rest of the net, react to "spoilers", I'm trying to steer clear of it in my own), soooo.

I'm intrigued by the 'subtle' adult themes you mentioned. Good review! Though I don’t normally read mystery or spy novels, this sounds good. I’m intrigued by the ’subtle’ adult themes you mentioned.

Good review!

So, I wouldn't do that myself. If I had to, and I leaned that way in one series, I did caution people about what I was going to reveal and then tiptoed around it as much as possible. But, that's me. You can do what you want. Personally, I hate learning the climax of a story. So, I wouldn’t do that myself.

We'll see how hard it gets. After this book, they start to have a serial plot that reveals more of Alex's past, which has kept me reading thus far. But then, to explain that, I'd have to reveal each book's climax in either its own reveiw or the next one. Is that allowed?

Have you ever read the Lemony Snickett series? I reviewed a few of them about a year or so ago; they are pretty good, if somewhat repetitive. I kinda lost track of the books and quit reading as life got busy. And it was tough to review books with very similar plots.... So, if you want to keep review these, go for it, but if they end up being "more of the same, though good" don't feel obligated. Oh, and yeah, these sound like a lot of fun.
