Review: Maximum Ride by James Patterson - Comments Page 32

Maximum Ride takes flight in this Young Adult series.

I was drawn in by the blurbs on the jacket of Maximum Ride, and ended up really enjoying this mutant-teen-adventure on steroids.  James Patterson's book is well-written, well-crafted, and downright fun - especially when waiting endless hours in an airport for whenever your next flight might be.…

    Voltaire I don't know who you are but a nice warm and friendly hello from!!! Taytay/Fangismine it's nice to see you again!!! Oh one thing about maximum ride the angel experiment, do not get the free thing on iTunes on the back of one if James pattersons books because the girl who reads it sucks at reading honestly I could have done a better job than that and max's voice sounds like some sort of Klingon from startrek(no I don't watch that show but I know what it is from space camp) and robot mixed together. If you already got it you're lucky it was free cause they totally cut out one of my favorite parts, the one where iggy and gazzy blow up the humv!!! So all in all it pretty much sucked.

    We did talk about Maximum Ride, but we drifted off into other subjects too. :) We're actually trying to find something to talk about right now.

    All of you do yourselves a favor and do not take German.

  • 1536 - nottelling

    About everyone coming back, I was thinking the exact same thing, Shahz. That's good though, welcome back everyone.
    I couldn't take German even if I wanted too, but why not? Is it hard?

  • 1537 - Fang is MINE!

    Oct 24, 2009 at 8:00 pm

    Yes German is Hard thats why I stuck with french! French is really fun cause you get to say Wee Wee (Yes thats really immature but thats me) and plus i think its a really pretty language. Whoa did you guys (if you remember me) know that Ive changed a lot? Im a CHEERLEADER now. Its so different not being "I dont care what I look like and what guys think about me" to "Oh my gosh my mascara smeared!" Its sick and repulsive but its me now and I hate it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yall prob dont care anyways.

    that's cool... I guess, just don't turn intot the kind of girl where the only book they've ever read(or claim to have read) twilight. yes German is hard and pretty ugly, French is negitive though. So, that's reall big news though.

    Ok i still read twilight but Im still in love with the MR series. But-I know this is kind of dissing Maximum Ride in a way- but you can really compare the general personalities of the twilight book characters to the MR characters
    Max-Bella (ok I even know thats a yeah right)
    Fang-Edward (no comparison as hot as fang)
    Alice-Nudge
    Gazzy-Emmett
    Angel-Rosalie (sorta)
    Jeb-Sam Uley
    Ms.Martinez-Esme
    Ari-Jacob (sometimes)

    THeyre PERSONALITIES are somewhat simalar but in no comparison to the overall character (as in MR characters being the awesome 1s duh :-))
    See it relates

    Lol. Well lets get off that subject anyway.......... I just got into well most people would call it middle school, but Im in jr high. So that means 6th graders arent in this school (aka Im in 7th) ANd I was just wonderin is it as hard for anyone else ajusting to a new school?

  • 1542 - What?

    Oct 28, 2009 at 2:38 pm

    uhhh the transition from elementary to middle school was tough.

  • 1543 - Shahz

    It wasn't really that hard for me from primary to middle school, but only a few of my old friends went to the same middle school as me. Our middle school's end at year 8 so I go to a grammar school now which had years 7 and 8 (but , obviously I got there in year 9) and even fewer people came from my middle school to this school, there's an entrance exam and most people just went to the school which is closer to where I live. So, moving from grammar school was harder, but I've goten used to it now cos i've went there for two years... Anyway, moving away from my life story, only a few more days till the end of half-term holidays:( I hate my work...

    I've never had to do much adjusting when it comes to school. Most of the elementary kids in my class went on to the same middle school I did, since I'm in the Catholic school system. Our middle school starts at grade 6 though. Then the middle and high schools are in the same building, so when I got to high school it wasn't so different. I'm pretty lucky.

    I remember that, it was a really good letter, but I suppose this isn't where james Patterson would read letters to him...

    Maybe you can find someone who has a connection to Mr. Patterson who can give it to him.
