I have loved the Cherub Book series, and although it will not challenge you, it provides an amusing and easy read.

The 12 books in the series are all about an organisation of young adult spies called CHERUB. Cherubs (an informal name used to call the child spies in CHERUB) go on missions to deceive and trick adults for the intelligence purposes. The series focuses on one boy, James, who at 12 gets recruited at CHERUB. The series then follows James on each of his missions- a book for each mission. The storylines are very interesting and keep you engrossed throughout. As well as learning aboout the missions, you grow attached to the characters, and a good portion of the books are also about their personal life. The books give both a high-paced story and the teenage romance we are looking for.

However, despite this being a wonderful series, it can be inappropriate at times. The first books have a small, yet noticeable, amount of moderate swearing and foul language, as well as reference to drugs, violence and teenage relationships. The later books (6 and later), have even more adult themes including sex and stronger violence and language, all of which shocked me at first. The Fall, especially, should be looked out for as it is very advanced and could be upsetting to some people (such as me). These books are not intended for the light-hearted and you must be well informed and mature before reading them.

Cherub is an absolute must for everyone who enjoys a thrilling book which keeps you interested at all times. It is great for all potential MI6 operatives and fans of the Alex Rider series.
