Review: Not If I Save You First - Ally Carter - March 2018
If there is
something that Ally Carter is good at, it
is writing strong teen female characters, and
most of her stories have a political thread to them as well. In Not If I Save
You First we move to an attack on the White House where Maddie's dad is the
head of security and her best friend Logan,
his father is the President of the US. When they were about 12-13, there was an incident with the Russians
at the White House which led to Maddie's dad saving Logan's mother but also
landed Maddie and her Dad in exile - they have moved to the middle of nowhere
aka Alaska. For the first year, Maddie writes letters to Logan but when she
doesn't get a reply - she stops, and her
heart is betrayed, and she learns to hate Logan. Meanwhile, Logan has grown up being a
troublemaker and slipping his guards. Logan's parents decide to send him to
Alaska to stay with Maddie aka Mad Dog. He is looking forward to seeing his old
friend again, Maddie, on the other hand, is dreading it. When the pair meets face to face,
you can tell there is some tension between the pair, and eventually, the book
moves on, and Logan ends up being kidnapped, and Maddie, of course, throws herself in the mix to save Logan and herself
from Danger. Can the pair survive not only the abduction but also the
Alaskan Winter?
