An elite group of nerds fight injustices by running a clandestine operation in high school.  The C.Y.A. hacked into the digital school sign and posted their message:

- - - If ever you're in need of help and you have nowhere else to go, seek out the C.Y.A.  We're always watching and we're here for you - - -

"Covert Youth Agency was a fun, quick read that included two awesome things: The CIA and love. The plot was pretty awesome! I mean, who wouldn't want to be a part of a secret school CIA that rights the wrongs of students and teachers?"  -- Harmony - Harmony's Radiant Reads Blog

"As I read this book last night, I found myself not wanting to put it down. I wanted to keep reading until the end. As I read, I wanted more and more to become a member of the C.Y.A. in my own high school. I wanted to go on missions with the characters." -- Chandler -- Shelfari Review

There are a couple things Tori's sure of:
-- People are stupid.
-- She will let them know.

There are a couple of things she's not:
-- Why her brain can function like a computer.
-- Why everyone's in such a rush to grow up.

There are a few things she's caught up in:
-- Starting the Not So Fast Club in school.
-- Issuing tickets to students on her own authority.
-- Helping her detective father solve a kidnapping case.

"Jason is the master with conversational banter. I normally don't laugh out loud while reading books but I just couldn't help it.  He really has an honest way with conversations. I think that's what separates him from the rest. I also could relate to every character. Let's be real here and admit a lot of times the smaller characters get swallowed by the plot and are forgotten by time the next chapter rolls around. That is not the case with Debugging Tori Redding." -- Liz - Cleverly Inked Blog

"Debugging Tori Redding has a unique voice and there's a lot to appreciate, here. The family scenes are dead-on, the grief and denial issues are just right, and humor's always cropping up. Tori doesn't even realize how hilarious her intensity can be--part of it comes from her own natural stubbornness, and part of it comes from being raised in a house full of dudes. But Tori's aggressive side is one of the best things about her, and once she finds some balance, she's just about right. For sheer fun and interesting-ness, I'm going to go with: Grade: A-" -- Tiger Holland - All-Consuming Books Blog

"Let me tell you, I was so impressed at the depth behind Tori's character. She isn't just a high school student who takes issue with loose morals. She isn't even just a girl with a computer for a brain. No, Tori is so much more than that. Tori is the lost adolescent trying to find her place in the big scheme of things. She is the girl who has recently lost a parent and is struggling to live in a house fueled with testosterone. Coincidentally she is also that character who still isn't sure how she stands in the world of relationships. Simply put, she's all of us." -- Jessica - A Fanatic's Book Blog
