Maximum Ride: An Angel Experiment


Maximum Ride is a fun living series about 6 kids fending for themselves. Oh, and they have wings. This series has a total of 6 books in it but with one on it's way. "An Angel Experiment" is the book that starts out the whole adventure.

The main character is a 14 year-old girl named Maximum Ride. (Max for short) She has blond hair and is very stuborn. Max is also the leader of the "flock" and she's the oldes of the 6 bird kids.
In this book the youngest of the clan is taken and brought to the School. (Angel)
The School is a lab where the flock was created. 'Cause they weren't born this way, they were taken away or donated by their parent when they were only little kids.
So the flock goes on a mission to save Angel. But will they get her back and uncover the dark secrets of the School in wich they were created? I guess you'll have to read it and find out. :P

This book is honestly one of the best books ever created. The author is James Patterson and he does a terrific job of keeping the readers intrest. Go J. P!
Also if someone asked me wich series is better Twilight or Maximum Ride? I would without a doubt pick Maximum Ride. It's funny, action packed, and believe it or not they even have a tiny bit of romance. You really couldn't find a better book if you tried. This is probably the best book I could ever recomend to you. So take my edvice and read it!

P. S. Sorry my description of the book wasn't the best! Believe me when I say it's really hard to describe whats going on in this book without tottaly copying James Patterson's version. :/

The Immortal Series


I've read many books in my short life but this has to be one of the worst. The first book is great and keeps you on the edge of watever your sitting on but it just goes down hill from there.

This story is on a girl named Ever who's one of the most popular kids in school. She has the perfect fanticy life that every girl would love to live. She's a cheerleader, popular, and is dating one of the hottest guys in school. But everything changes after she dies.
Yes, you heard me right, she died. Along with the rest of here family and the family's dog in a car crash. When the paramedics "start he heart again" she realizes she's the only one in the family that made it out alive, and she's forced to move in with her aunt.
After starting out in her new life she notices that she's "different."
Ever posesses the power to know everything about a person or thing simply by touching it and, oh yeah, she can read minds. Not only does she have to deal with all this but she can see the dead.
But everything changes, once again, when she meets the new kid in school, Damen. And it doesn't take long for Ever to fall for Damen. What with his unhumanly good looks. And believe it or not there's a reason for it, because Damen is inhuman. Get it? Ever and Damen go through heartbreak, struggle, and much more throughtout the series with a couple suprises along the way.


Okay, well if your lost like I was when I first heard about this series then pick it up and start reading my friend. Althought I really don't recomend it. Now here are my ratings. . .

The Immortals Series:

1) Evermore: 4 1/2 out of 5 stars.

2) Blue Moon: 3 out of 5 stars.

3) Shadowland: 2 out of 5 stars.


And there is 3 more to come. So if you think this sounds interesting, then be my guest and read them. But on your way to the book store please see a doctor.

The Hunger Games


Okay, so one of my favorite books ever is "The Hunger Games." It has all of the most wanted traits in a book; Suspense, action, romance, even comedy. When I read this book, I just couldn't stop! It always leaves you hanging on the edge. Now, after all my talk about how totally awesome it is I'm sure you're wondering what it's about. Am I right? I know I am.


"The Hunger Games" takes place in America hundreds of years into the future, it's then known as Panem and is made up of 12 districts. The main character is sixteen -year-old Katniss Everdeen who lives in District 12. Every year in Panem 2 contestants, a boy and a girl between the ages 12 and 18, are chosen at random and thrown into an arena to fight to the death on national television. This is called The Hunger Games.

On the day of the Reaping, when the contestants are drawn and shown to the world, Katniss is ready for the worst. But she's at complete shock when she realizes that her 12-year-old sister is picked to go into the arena of death. So she does what any overly protective older sister would do. She volunteers to take her place.

But there is yet another twist to this story when Peeta Mellark is also chosen from Disrtict 12, for Katniss and him have met before in not-so-good circumstances. And later while training for the upcoming games, he is portrayed as her lover.

The Hunger Games is simple and has only one rule, kill or be killed. And when you have 24 other people out to kill you themselves, the chose seems very obvious.

This book keeps you on your toes and, if you asked me, is a very very good read. I would give it 4 out of 5 stars. Also, there is a movie that is being made about it that is scheduled to come out in 2011 so don't miss it.
WARNING: MAJOR BOOK SPOILERS BEYOND THIS POINT! CONTINUE . . . IF YOU DARE.




For those of you who have already read "The Hunger Games" then you know that Katniss sings a lullaby to Rue when she dies. This is what I think it should sound like. And, just for the record. I think this girl has a beautiful voice and I wish I could sing like that . . . but I can't. So please don't ask if this is me. 'Cause it's not. =P
