We’re back from Tokyo and I’m living with my dad.
Zach is my dad…
That’s still weird to admit out loud.
Since we got back, the guys have treated me like I’m fragile.
I am going to prove to them that I am stronger than they think.
Maybe I’m crazy to sign up for torture training.
Maybe I’m crazy to think I can survive Spy School.
There are some things not even the boys can protect me from.
Toxic is book 3 in The Zara Chronicles.

Better than the last but really not by much because while Zara is supposed to be a genius...yea not so much.

Does Spy School harbor a traitor?
Another terrific read. This one is more about her relationships not only with the boys but also with her family (including all her dad's, siblings and mothers). She starting to explore the attraction she feels for the guys and perhaps going on dates with them. Moving into her father's house has also put her into closer contact with Zach and the work he's doing to see if there is a snake hidden in their midst. Classes are being added and all seems to be going well until there is something they didn't factor for - a break in.

Light, fun easy reads.
Since I don't normally write reviews unless I have something specific to say, here's the break down of how I rate my books...
1 star... This book was bad, so bad I may have given up and skipped to the end. I will avoid this author like the plague in the future.
2 stars... This book was not very good, and I won't be reading any more from the author.
3 stars... This book was ok, but I won't go out of my way to read more, But if I find another book by the author for under a dollar I'd pick it up.
4 stars... I really enjoyed this book and will definitely be on the look out to pick up more from the series/author.
5 stars... I loved this book! It has earned a permanent home in my collection and I'll be picking up the rest of the series and other books from the author ASAP.

February 13, 2019I really think the author's writing style will get better over time. As my rating so obviously states, it is ok right now. There's just something so as hay matter-of-fact wish about the storytelling, as if it's a textbook. Kind of dry and lacking in between the dialogue among characters...which results to lead feelings. On the other side, I just can't see past the 1-dinensional-ness of the characters. I think it's a side-effect to the writing style? And lastly, I don't appreciate how the guys insist the heroine to be completely honest with them but at the same time don't practice what they preach. Smh.

Such a good series!
I love this storyline and the growing relationships Zara has with all the guys, but even more so, with Zach. Happy that she finally feels like she fits in and has a new family and that she’s safe. She’s progressing so well in school and has been given her first assignment. But this book kind of “ends”on a big cliffhanger.
The author should have reversed the order of the last two sections of the book, or added another chapter break or something. The cliffhanger would have been so much more effective and made readers so much more anxious for the next book.

I just finished this book and can't wait to read more. This is the kind of book that you can't believe when you get to the end because you thought that you started only ten minutes ago.. time just flies by you...
This story is so unique and the author just knows how to get you hooked up! I love how Zara and the boys develop their relationship and the way she thinks.
Can't wait for the next one and I hope that Scarlett keeps this series going for a long time!

Okay
Toxic is the third instalment in the Zara Chronicles. This particular novella is a follow on from the last, obviously. The team returns to school, Zach continues to investigate who sabotage the plane, the guys have admitted they are falling in love with Zara, obviously not to Zara just yet, and we are left with a cliffhanger. Zara in the meantime is trying get to know her dad and deal with her complicated feelings towards her mum. The boys always have her back however.

Hmmm...
I think I see the pattern the author is writing in now. The guys character development will be at the end of each book. As the series continues we will get to know them each a little bit better. The story development is pretty good still. Zara is a unique character that thinks outside the box. I really like her.

Five stars
I loved this book. It had all the things i wanted in it and it gives you a better understanding of Zara. The only problem is that it is so short! Ideas this in one sitting and now I can't wait for the next one.

Fun YA series. I enjoy the escape.
(To the author: My son had a concussion recently. If he is anything like a typical patient, you may have missed the mark on the recovery protocol, but thanks for the escape from reality with your fun series!)

Why the cliffhanger 😭😭😭😭😭
I think Zara’s mom Inconsiderate, entitled . She’s hardly three for her yet she didn’t want her moving in with her dad. She also Gilts Zara and making her feel sorry for her mom. I’m kinda annoyed with the mom

Longer
I love the characters. I have one of the guys in mind, whom I hope Zara ends up with but it was a tough choice. I just wish the books were longer.

Cannot get enough
Just when things start to ramp up it ends. Still enjoying smart and spunky Zara and her guys. Still wishing these books were a bit longer but they are very good.

What a character
Wow I fell in love with the guys they are so cool. I wish I had friends like them. Spy school is really awesome. I liked the humor in this too. This is really good.

Relationships
In Toxic, Zara stays close to home but learns some new things. The guys are around and her new dad is there. Again it's really short, but fun.
