Avery West's newfound family can shut down Prada when they want to shop in peace, and can just as easily order a bombing when they want to start a war. Part of a powerful and dangerous secret society called the Circle, they believe Avery is the key to an ancient prophecy. Some want to use her as a pawn. Some want her dead.
To unravel the mystery putting her life in danger, Avery must follow a trail of clues from the monuments of Paris to the back alleys of Istanbul with two boys who work for the Circle—beautiful, volatile Stellan and mysterious, magnetic Jack. But as the clues expose a stunning conspiracy that might plunge the world into World War 3, she discovers that both boys are hiding secrets of their own. Now she will have to choose not only between freedom and family--but between the boy who might help her save the world, and the one she's falling in love with.

I came across THE CONSPIRACY OF US while I was at library, looking for some more books to read. Then the book caught my attention, mostly the title and I was hooked from that moment. I found myself asking why conspiracy? What is that girl in photograph thinking? I could tell by looking at the cover that something big is going to happen, that there is some sort of suspense that is going take place in story. Once I read the summay I was hooked even more to the story, how could I not be? A book that involves mystery, suspense, fantasy, forbidden romance, everything that I love about book. THE CONSPIRACY OF US a story that will have your attention till end of the book and afterwards will have you craving for more. After that ending you will wish that the next book was out. There wasn’t a single page where there wasn’t anything going on, always something happening from the first page till the last.
I could see connection between Avery and Jack right away, even before Avery found out what was going on. There seemed to always be some sort of attraction between two of them, and he was pretty much risking his life, his career in order to help Avery. By then I already knew that what Jack felt for her were more than friendship feelings. On multiple occasions when it was just the two of them, there was tension between the two of them. I knew that it must been tough on the two of them considering that the relationship between two of them was forbidden. However in the end, they couldn’t find they feelings any longer. I did wonder when the two of them would finally give in. Even though I knew that there most likely be consequences but I was happy that two of them acted on their feelings. Of course now, especially after the ending I am curious to see what happens with them next. Now Stellan, I feel that there might be something between him and Avery, maybe not same like with her and Jack but there is something there, even if neither of them want to admit it.
What I loved about THE CONSPIRACY OF US is there was always some sort of suspense and mystery surrounding the story. Each page, each chapter has you eager to see what’s going to happen with everyone next. Especially Avery. You can’t help but love Avery, but there are also times where you can’t help but feel sorry for her. I can’t even begin to imagine having go through what she went through. Find out that you have this whole other family, then also get hunted and almost killed on multiple occasions? That girl just can’t seem to catch a break. Hopefully things start looking up for her soon. I can tell that MAGGIE HALL is going be one author whose books I am going look forward to. I am already looking forward to the next book in the series, and honestly I am not sure how long I can wait.
A beautiful, astonishing debut.
