Maximum Experience!

Alrighty. Like I had said, this new blog will be about another favorite book series of mine, Maximum Ride. I love these books. James Patterson is a totally amazing author! No joke. I think he might be my favorite(besides Rick Riordan, who will be talked about in my next blog). Anyways, back on subject. There are 5 books in the Maximum Ride series. After the 4th one, James Patterson said that there weren't going to be any more, but I was walking in Wal-Mart a few months ago and I saw something that made me jump up and down a bunch of times! (I almost screamed but I didn't think that would be a good thing to do in a giant store.) I saw...*pause for dramatic effect*...THE FIFTH BOOK!!! It was simply titled Max. I bought it right away!!! I couldn't believe it was only 10 dollars!!!!
Maximum Ride is about 6 genetically engineered kids. They are 98% human, 2% bird. They have wings, lighter bones, bigger lungs, and they are hunted by really creepy mixes of humans and wolves, called Erasers. Their names are(in order of age, Max being the oldest) Max, Fang, Iggy, Nudge, The Gasman(no explanation needed), and Angel. Max and Fang are in love with each other, but they only admitted it to each other in the 3rd book and in the 4th book, the romance between them was pretty much non-existent. So that was another reason that I was so excited about the fifth book. I was so happy when I read it(all in one day, I might add) and I found that there was tons of romance! Yay for romance!!! I will say this once: YOU MUST READ THIS SERIES IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY!!!
Like I said in the previous blog, they are now making a movie out of this(it will be coming out in 2010...blah...) which will STINK! I have already seen the commercial that is out and I really don't think it will be a good movie. I really wouldn't care if the movie was 5 hours long, directors should follow the book exactly. I really think that my favorite part of the book will not be in it. IT NEVER IS!
My next blog shall touch on another favorite series: Percy Jackson and the Olympians, by Rick Riordan. As you can tell, I am going to write about my favorites before writing about other things.
