SPOLIERS. LOTS AND LOTS OF SPOILERS.

*for all reading this, I want you to know that I am an avid, crazy- obsessed max ride fan. its just that this one installment... well, you'll see.I might update this later, when I sound more normal and get the disapointment out of my system.*

and since it's MR, I can't rate it lower than a four. Sorry to all those who agree with the following review.

Finished this so long ago but never reviewed. SO MANY FLAWS!!!!!!!!!

Love Maximum Ride, but really James Patterson, I'm beginning to hate you.

Flaw 1: Max and Fang were in LOVE. They were best friends before that and would tell each other ANYTHING. Once they see each other in this book they have nothing to say to each other and act like strangers! Okay, maybe I was expecting a little heartfelt reunion, but THIS?!?! What the hell was THAT?! That was two middle school friends More...

First of all: I'm scrolling down the list of reviews, and I'm reading about how it's Iggy's turn.

Yeah, damn right it is! >:(

Anyways.

No.

I will NOT let myself get excited for these books, ever again.

Okay, this is completely stupid. Angel? The frigging six year old that betrayed them like a bajillion times? (So, maybe it was about 6, but whatever; I've never been able to count.)

Really, James Patterson? Are you seriously going to let An More...

Oh schnikes.

James Patterson is now using the word "imprint" now. God help us all.

Well, considering the imprinting in this book is from one teenager to another and that they are actually BIRD mutants (the term imprint originated from the act of a baby bird bonding with it's mother), it isn't quite as icky as a wolf imprinting on and falling in instatruelove with a newborn baby. Because we all know that bestiality combine More...

Hmmm... I think if Fang dies, I will too. So that's why I feared for my life in Fang.

I think I know what Max would say right about now: "If Fang is in any way harmed - if he gets a hangnail - you won't see another morning."

As for the whole Max/Dylan thing, it would depend on if it lasts. This would be the ideal situation:
1. Max falls for Dylan
2. Max sees Fang or hears from him or something like that.
3. Max realizes that she loves Fang more th More...

Max and Fang are gonna get to see each other before the whole twenty years spiel? Phew.

Impending love triangle...

O_o

For me, the Voice may have said that Dylan was Max's genetic match, but Fang will always be her soulmate.

I'm just wondering how many more books in this series there are going to be. Even the description admits it: "evil scientists are still trying to convince Max that she needs to save the world..." STILL?! Come on Mr. Patterson, how much more can you drag this out? Seriously, here are my suggestions:

1. Kill Angel (the evil, little, back-stabbing brat).
2. Let Fang return.
3. Let Max save the world.
4. Give the Flock a happy ending.

Angel?! Really?! She's already betrayed them like a million times, and even voted Max off the flock! Which was stupid, by the way. At least Max didn't let them get so exsposed they ended up getting sick! Angel is soo anoying exspecially with this good vs. evil thing going on with her! Get a life Angel! And Max, you need to stop having mercy on this child and give her a good old fashioned spanking ot somethin!
I hate Angel. She's a blot in my radar.Well unless she hears from her Voice...

This series should have ended three books ago, before all that stupid global warming stuff. And I hear there will be yet ANOTHER book coming out after this.
I LOVE Maximum Ride, but seriously, even good things have to come to an end. And if this ends up like all the other series I read that went on too long, the series is only gonna get worse. From what I've read of Angel, that's the way it's going to be.

I mean, issues:

-Dylan. Ewwwww. Just, no.
-Fang leaves. Ne More...

Quick Warning, contains spoilers from book 6

Ok so I have been waiting for this book since... well since 'Fang' came out!! I love this series, but I have to say that... 'FANG' WAS THE WORST BOOK EVER!!! Why? I'll tell you why:

Number 1: Fang fricking left!! WTF!! How could he? ~sob~ I nearly cried, and after I got over my sadness I threw the book at a wall (or at least I wanted to).
Number 2: Dylan? Really? SERIOUSLY?! No way. No fricking way!! That cannot happen!! Fax fore More...

**CONTAINS SOME SPOILERS. YOU SHOULD SERIOUSLY READ THE PAST BOOKS IF YOUR GONNA READ THIS ONE.**

Well, maybe a two-and-a-half?

I don't have high hopes for this book, really. Fang was just... Extremely extended Drabble. Just saying.

I mean, I loooove Fang himself. Reading the first four books, I thought to the side, "Aww, they're perfect for each other! They HAVE to get together! :3" Then reading Max, "Oh, YES! Finally! :D" Come Fang, and here's wh More...

You know how some books make you squeal in delight once you buy them, even if you know bad things are going to happen in that book? You just have to be happy, because you love the series and the characters and you know it'll all be alright, even if you also have an inkling that some of the main characters are going to die?
Yeah. I don't feel that anymore for this series.
The first three books, they were great. The series could have--and maybe should have--ended there. A More...

Angel is a butt poop!!! Shes scary with that "I want to lead the flock" thing! And now shes ganna be the herion? NO! And Yeah, when does Iggy get his turn to be all awesome? I was very excited for this book to come out and now, not so much. Fang is amazing, how could Max not wait for him? He did what he thought was right. Whatever.

Please, no. Just...no. Hasn't this series been dragged through the mud enough? At least we'll get some closure to the ending of Fang. Hopefully this time the series'll be done for good-the phrase 'should have left well enough alone' comes to mind.

Angel - Continuing the Twilightification of The Maximum Ride Series or saving it from a fate worse then death? SPOILERS!

First, Uh, Angel it's Iggy's turn to have the spotlight. :/ Poor Iggy, it looks as if he's been pushed to the side in the Max Ride novels. He had the potential to be such a great character too...

Secondy, JP, I honestly hope this book is better the past three. Everything after the third book has just been so... Bland. I've been so disappointed with More...

Ok, this Jessica review may or may not contain spoilers. It depends on how you see things.

I think now I should give this book a real review and I must say... I AM SOOOOO ANNOYED!!!! ugh, you can even believe how mad I am. Now please understand I love maximum ride and James Patterson, but seriously dude, just stop. You shouldn't stopped maximum ride after the third one. It was all downhill from the Final Warning and I'm just mad. Seriously?! Ugh, and now I know they'll make a movie out More...

The end of Maximum Ride.
WHY?!
Honestly though, this may be one of my favorites in the series. The best one since 'Saving the World and Other Extreme Sports.'
Fast-paced, exciting, and not just 300 pages of Max whining about Fang and Angel. I also loved the addition of Fang's flock, and Dylan not being a d-bag. I must say I'm becoming a big fan of Dylan-Max. At least he won't let his feelings get the best of him.
I hated 'Fang,' but this book was awesome, More...

Nightshade marked it as to-read

I really hope that this is the last book in the series. Seriously, James Patterson can't drag it out much longer. The newly-installed summary sounds good and dramatic and exciting, but how exciting is it really going to be? FANG's summary sounded good, too, but that book had NO PLOT.

Seriously, I think even Twilight had a little more plot than that.

Just a little.

It makes me cry.

Dear Mr. James Patterson,
I'd love to have a nice chat with you, merely a formal face-to-face talk, preferably somewhere unknown to others?
I really think you should rethink where you are going with the last and final book with all the high-hopes of your devoted fans soaring above you like vultures that would snap and tear at you at even the slightest-

This book ripped and tore my heart into a millions pieces as much as it feebly bandaged it back together...only to tear it ap More...

I read the first eight chapters online, (read here: http://jamespatterson.com/books_maximumR... ) and though I can't say I'm surprised where he's going with the story, I'm a bit miffed at how messed up it got. I mean, Dylan? Seriously? There's no way Max will end up with him. He's either gonna die saving her life (or Fang's for a nice little twist), or he's going to fly off and never be seen again. He can't stay with the flock. And, I swear, if this turns out to be a Edward-Bella-Jacob thi More...

NOTE: I finished this book not long after it came out, so I don't remember every little detail.

I must admit that I was quite happy with this book, though the whole go green message annoyed me and the fact that Iggy keeps getting pushed aside bugs the crap out of me. ANYWAYS, onto the goo side of things. We got to me some great new people (which was pretty refreshing) and we got to see different experiments that were successful other than the flock. James Patterson also won me over wi More...

If she falls for Dylan, I will rip up every Max book I own, except the parts with Fang and Max :) Best couple ever!!!! I think there are going to be books like "Iggy" and "Nudge" too, maybe. You know, since there's already a "Max" "Fang" and now "Angel". I can't wait to read this! But the wait is SO long!
