So I just finished Maximum Ride: Saving the World and Other Extreme Sports by James Patterson. This is the third installment of the Maximum Ride series. I absolutely LOVE these books.
I enjoy the adventure. The twists and turns. The characters, most of all! I love Max and her snarky comebacks! I love her sense of humor. But most of all, I love her and Fang together. I'm mushy like that.
So if you've never heard of or read any of the Maximum Ride series, or anything by James Patterson, then I suggest that you find them at your local library and start reading! Seriously, for it being Young Adult, I enjoyed how easy it was to relate. It wasn't a difficult read, but some things took me by surprise. I'm not saying that mutant bird kids are supposed to be dumb. I've never met or heard about, in any book, mutant bird kids. I'm not exactly sure what genre this falls under, but it's more Sci-Fi for me, and these kids were created in a science lab, so Science Fiction works for me. Unless Sci-Fi means something different now? Haha.
I will say, though, some of the turns are expected, like Angel being evil. Because she started to control minds and such in the second book. But what I didn't expect about it, is that it was all just a part of Max's plan! I give her a TON of Kudos. I love that kid. I'm always left with wanting more. James Patterson does an amazing job. Maximum Ride: The Angel Experiment was my first book by Patterson that I've read and I can't get enough. The way he separates his chapters makes the book go by so quickly. It makes it a fast and easy read.
Again, it's a Young Adult series, like Twilight, and you see how crazy adults got over those. So go for it. I'm 19 and I love these books! They're something different and they're beautifully written. You'll fall in love with the characters, and want so much more from them. They truly deliver a punch in the action parts of the books. I can't get enough. 5/5 stars!
