Hi everyone! Ally here saying that I can’t believe that UNITED WE SPY has been out for four weeks, and I must thank everyone who ordered it in whatever form it might have come in.
In the past few weeks I have seen a little bit of confusion online about the special epilogue that came with the Barnes and Noble hardbacks. I’ve also heard some confusion about the small booklet with the story called A GALLAGHER WEDDING.
So…here’s the answer: they are the same thing.
Instead of printing up a special run of books with an epilogue, it was easier (and more fun) to print up the little booklets and add them to the back of the BN hardbacks. Which I think is cool because that meant I got to give it a title (A GALLAGHER WEDDING!!) and it got a cover and everything.
So that is what A Gallagher Wedding is–it is the special B&N epilogue.
Hope that helps!
Ally
Ps: Ally here. I’m very troubled to hear that some of you who purchased hardback copies of UNITED WE SPY from Barnes & Noble did not get a copy of A Gallagher Wedding in the back of the book. If this happened to you, my best advice at the moment is to go to a BN store, take your book and your receipt, and ask to exchange your copy for a copy with A Gallagher Wedding. Note: copies with A Gallagher Wedding will have a small sticker on the front of the book that says something about special/bonus content.
I have made my publisher aware of the situation and am trying to get more information. If and when I know more I will post it here.
Sorry again,
Ally

February 3, 2018 at 11:50 amI rented mine from the Library yet I NEVER got to see the book: A Gallagher Wedding. Also I feel like you should do some other books like what happens to all the characters after school and what happens to Zach and Cammie? Please, Please, Please make other books to go with the Gallagher girls series. I’m dying to know what happens next.

Garcie says

Anon says
October 10, 2013 at 3:57 amHi, I was just wondering if you can get the epilogue without the B&N hardback copy?
Sabina G says
October 10, 2013 at 8:10 amThat does help Ally! I have read A Gallagher Wedding and it came out really good! It was so cute! Good job, I am happy you wrote it! 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂
Maria says
October 10, 2013 at 1:17 pmI have only read the first 3 books and I’m dying to read the last 3! The first book I read by Ally Carter was The third book in the series. This series is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lauren says
October 10, 2013 at 1:15 pmwas it supposed to come with all b&n hardcovers cause the copy i preordered didn’t have that.
Team Zach! says
October 10, 2013 at 4:22 pmBest part of A Gallagher Wedding…zach in a tux 🙂
Kat says
October 10, 2013 at 5:21 pmWill you post the epilogue? Because I’m Canadian so it would have been a lot of money to order the B&N copy but I really want to read it…
ggandheistsociety says
October 10, 2013 at 6:09 pmYES please???????
Imogen says
October 10, 2013 at 6:38 pmYes! I’m from Australia and I really want to read it!!!
GGloveforever says
November 2, 2013 at 8:44 pmI’m from Australia and with my copy of United We Spy at the back there was a qr scanner thing that would give a website to read A Gallagher Wedding. I don’t know if yours has that because mines an Australian published one but that’s how I got to read it 🙂
Froggy7698 says
November 21, 2013 at 4:16 amHow do you scan the barcode thigame cos I’m not sure how to do it…..
GGloveforever says
November 22, 2013 at 6:45 pmYou download the qr scanner app on iPhone
Spiryt says
December 7, 2013 at 1:27 amI ordered my copy on my Kindle so it didn’t come with it. Where can I read it?! 🙂
Cassie says
October 10, 2013 at 5:38 pmHi ally! Does the epilogue only come with the books we by from Barnes and Noble when we go into the store? Cause I ordered a hardback from b&n online and I didn’t get the epilogue.
Lauren says
October 12, 2013 at 3:41 pmthe same thing happened to me. I went into the store today and the lady at the help desk said she could switch it out for me. I don’t if your store would do that but it can’t hurt to ask.
Victoria says
October 10, 2013 at 7:25 pmOh I get it! I bought it on the Nook but I’ll figure someway to read it 😉
Jessica G. says
October 11, 2013 at 1:46 amI just want to say, that after 8 years, this was the perfect ending to this series. I have been devoted to this series since I was in the seventh grade, and as a senior myself, I cried. Multiple times. Ally, thank you for leading me into a place such as Gallagher Academy. It has been an adventure, and an HONOR to walk this journey with Cam, Bex, Liz, Zach, and the rest of the Gallagher clan. Thank you so much for everything that you write. Without people like you in this world, it would be a very boring place. Thanks again, and I look forward to the many other books that you will write.
Forever a Gallagher Girl,
Jessica <3
Ayelet says
November 13, 2013 at 10:21 pmI understand just how you feel, I cried too :'(.
Jessica says
April 25, 2014 at 6:07 pmSame! I loved the spee h that Liz wrote and I cried.
Shabrina says
May 10, 2014 at 9:08 amMe either! Liz’s speech was very touching and I cried.
AnnaE says
October 11, 2013 at 12:03 pmJust a quick question from your fans from other countries. When is “united we spy” coming out in other countries and what stores will the ” A Gallagher wedding” be in? Thanks so much xxxx
Jessica N says
October 11, 2013 at 1:16 pmOh, I loved it! I got the book and finished it all in one day because I was dying to read the short 🙂 An excellent ending to an amazing series. (also, I so called it! xD)
Jessica says

gallaghergirl says

And a brilliant ending. Liz’s speech was amazing I would beer have come up with that and it made cry!!! Xxx
Yolanda says
October 13, 2013 at 4:41 pmHi –
I ordered the BN hardcover so I’d have it release week. Got, read it – LOVED it. I wasn’t sure it had the supplement so e-mailed here to confirm, got no response, figured, OK it was the last chapter of the BN hardcover. See this, called BN.com. After 15 minutes of being on hold with 2 BN reps, they tell me as far as BN.com is concerned there is no supplement to go with the book.
Called 2 BN store locations and they know nothing of this supplement – nothing behind the counter or packaged with the book on the shelf – both checked their systems and there’s no mention of a supplement. The one is calling corporate to hopefully, get a copy.
As a writer, I completely get that Ally has no control of distribution. Really, I do. But, I’m rather frustrated, though it looks like I’m in good company. I’m hoping that this will be made available even in a PDF form as I’m sure we’d all love to read it. Especially, those of us who bought the BN hardcover and didn’t get it.
Taelor says
October 13, 2013 at 4:57 pmI just read United we Spy!!!! I asked for it for my birthday and so I didn’t get the B&N extra, since we celebrated my birthday yesterday 🙁 Will you ever put A Gallagher Wedding online?
BTW THE BOOK WAS AMAZING I know you’re done with the series but if you ever did like a series of short stories about all the character after they graduate and when Zach and Cammie get married , What Liz ended up doing, How Bex is doing in MI6 and Macey doing her undercover spy thing (I think that’s what she could end up doing) and some of their missions. That would be amazing
GGseriesfan says
October 14, 2013 at 7:42 pmI agree with you about ally writing short stories about Zach,Cammie,Bex,Liz,and Macey
Kara says
October 13, 2013 at 5:03 pmPersonally I thought the Gallagher Wedding was a much better ending than the ending of the actual book. I know Ally said she didn’t want to end with Zach and Cammie’s wedding….but she could have done some kind of romantic ending
Daisy A. says
October 14, 2013 at 11:58 amI just got the book! Took me forever but I was fangirling over The House of Hades >.< so I made it a special day where I got both! Was totally worth the wait 😀
Bea (Elizabeth) says
October 21, 2013 at 10:10 amOh my gods! Me too! I wish we could have more GG books…hint hint Ally!
Elaina says
October 14, 2013 at 5:22 pmi just got my copy of the Barns and Noble hard back and it didn’t come with a Gallagher Wedding.
what do i do!?
I really want to read to read it, was it supposed to be a tiny book attached to United We Spy or printed in the back of the book. i’m so confused…………
did the same thing happen to anyone else?……..
What should i do?
GGseriesfan says
October 14, 2013 at 7:38 pmI agree with you about ally writing short stories about Zach,Cammie,Bex,Liz,and Macey
Lily says
October 16, 2013 at 2:42 pmSince I purchased my book on the internet from France, I didn’t get the little book. Damn kind of disappointed
Kayla says
October 16, 2013 at 8:19 pmWill you ever put the epilogue on line for those of us who don’t have a B&N near by but really want to read it?
Imogen says
October 17, 2013 at 5:36 pmYes! Would you please be able post it here or make it a PDF? There’s a lot of people that really want to read it!!
Carol says
October 17, 2013 at 8:53 amWill Gallagher Wedding be available anywhere else? Our library bought several copies but because we don’t purchase through B&N, none of our copies have this ending. Any other way to read it?
GallagherandBlackthorneunited says
October 18, 2013 at 4:31 pmAlly, im from Canada, I know this may sound stupid, but I searched up where the nearest b/n store is and it said THERE ARE NO BARNES AND NOBLE HERE. 🙁 could you post the ending Gallagher wedding part pleaseee?
Liz says
October 18, 2013 at 4:33 pmdoes the ending come from books at chapters too?
Alyssa says
October 21, 2013 at 4:42 pmDoes anyone know if this is out for kindle? I looked it up by it self and nothing came up. There is an epilogue in the back of United we spy but (spoiler many) it has nothing to do with a wedding. Thanks 🙂
Talya says
October 21, 2013 at 5:52 pmIs there a way to find it online? My copy doesn’t have one, but I got it signed so B&N wouldn’t take it back..would they still give me a new one??
Alexis says
October 27, 2013 at 9:54 pmHi Ally! So I JUST realized that my book from Barnes and Noble doesn’t have the epilogue, but I already had it signed by you so I can return it. Is there any way to get a copy of the booklet??? (Please say yes :D)
bookluver463 says
November 3, 2013 at 11:31 pmI know it’s a bit late to comment but I’d just like to say that I was charged three extra dollars for the extra story. Don’t get me wrong…. TOTALLY worth it but I just thought people should be aware that there IS a price difference.
Niamh says
November 21, 2013 at 4:19 amAlly, Is A Gallagher Wedding going to come out in the UK without the special thing? I have already bought and read the last book and i heared about A Gallagher Wedding after i read it, i live in the UK and i was hoping maybe it would be on sale without the special offer.
SES says
November 30, 2013 at 5:37 pmAlly,
I just purchased my copy of United We Spy at Barnes and Noble today and A Gallagher wedding wasn’t in the back. This is very important to me! Do you think they’ll still switch it out? Please let me know in a future post or just contact me by e-mail.
Thanks,
SES
Stephanie, #1 Grant and Jonas fan says
December 5, 2013 at 11:34 pmI got this book the minute it came out ( I went to the book signing event in austin and everything) but am sad cause i didn’t get this, could you make it available on ibooks or something for those of us who could not purchase it from B and N please? This will be like an itch i can’t scratch until I read it.
Thanks
Erin says
January 5, 2014 at 10:49 pmIs the Gallagher Wedding supposed to come with every hardback from Barnes and Noble? I recently ordered the book and it did not come with this. Was this only with the pre-order?
Lover of the Gallagher Girls says
February 10, 2014 at 5:27 pmThat is so awesome! I’m totally going to order the last book now! I hope the Gallagher wedding is in it;-)
Thank you for the amazing books you write!!!! 🙂
-Lover of your books
Val says
March 5, 2014 at 4:08 amHey, Allay Carter, I really love your Gallagher Girls Series, it took me about a month to finish the whole series off. 😉
To my surprise, i realised that i grew more interest in reading when i read them because these books made me sooooooo engrossed and i just love it so much!
Jessica says
April 25, 2014 at 6:05 pmOmg. I think I might cry!!! I cang believe the series is over!!!!! I really loved this series. It was like my way of getting away from reality. Omg best series of books ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
sabina says
July 13, 2014 at 4:53 pmIn “A Gallagher Wedding,” if Solomon was like a father figure to Zach wouldn’t that make Zach and Cammie step brother and sister, and wouldn’t that mess with their relationship?
gallagher girl fan says

Haven says
April 14, 2017 at 7:40 pmHi Ally! I bought mine on my kindle and it would not let me see this epilogue….
Jaylen says
June 30, 2017 at 11:38 pmWill there ever be a short story about Zach and Cammie’s wedding? Also what happened to Zach’s mom after the fire.

Millie Levenson says
February 6, 2018 at 4:54 pmCan I get a copy of A Gallagher Wedding without the sixth book. I’m currently reading the sixth one, but am interested in this short story. Could you please write about the girls going to a soy college because I think that would be interesting.
Aditi Singh says
August 13, 2018 at 8:37 pmIt would be super cool to see like a small post Gallagher girls series made of mission reports, to keep us updated with our favorite characters!
