Hi guys!
Today I bring you a post just in English because this book is not translated to portuguese!The book that I am going to talk today is called A Dangerous Year.
As the daughter of an American ambassador, seventeen-year-old Riley Collins has grown up in some of the world’s most dangerous cities.
She may have learned the art of politics from her dad, but it’s the lessons in survival taught by his security chief that she’s taken to heart.
When Riley is caught up in a violent incident, the State Department steps in, offering an all-expense paid senior year at Harrington Academy, one of the most elite boarding schools in Connecticut. The catch: she must use her tactical skills to keep her eye on heiress Hayden Frasier, the daughter of a tech billionaire intent on changing the world.
Immersed in American materialism and social media for the first time, it’s culture shock for Riley. Hayden resents her new roommate, and Riley learns nothing is ever private when there’s a cellphone around. She discovers allies in Von Alder, the cute class flirt; Sam Hudson, whose status as Hayden’s ex-boyfriend puts him on the forbidden list; and Major Grace Taylor, Harrington’s tough new head of security, and the only one who knows Riley’s true purpose at Harrington.
Disturbing signs begin to appear that Riley’s assignment wasn’t the walk in the park she’d been promised. She learns the death of Hayden’s former roommate might not have been an accident after all, and she spars with classmate Quinn, whose attempts at social sabotage causes Riley to take drastic measures.
As Riley’s relationship with Hayden thaws into her first opportunity at true friendship, the danger around her roommate heats up. Riley must fight for her life and Hayden’s – and the security of a nation – as those around her reveal themselves to be true friends, or the ultimate betrayers.
I really liked to read this book: is funny, interesting and catching!
It is a a book that you can read between other deep and heavy books because it is a soft and fast reading!

The characters are a little cliché but nothing that you can't endure. However, they are really captivating and, the most of them, cute.
The main action is nothing out of this world, however, it
entertains a lot and makes the reader want to know more about what is going to
happen.
Even though the main action is not super original and
different, this books has some interesting original things happening that got me
that impressed me and made me like the book more.
If you want a soft and interesting book to read, this a good option!
I rate this book with 3,3 out of 5.If you want a soft and interesting book to read, this a good option!
