Awesome!!
Yep. I totally forgot when it came out and was flipping out when I got it this morning.

I got it and read it!!!!!!!!!! Are you guys also really frustrated with how you don't get to find out what happens to Iggy, Nudge, and Gazzy??!!
OMG I just finnished!!! I actually lived TE ending it was so good with Fang and Max. That's the Fang we all know and love. It was sort of depressing bc all the humans died but at least the flock is good.
I joined this group just so I could talk about the book here, since all of my other groups are pretty inactive... Soooo yeah. :) Hiya.This next rant may or may not (it probably will) contain spoilers, so... g'luck everybody. :)
So I bought Nevermore yesterday, and finished it yesterday. Since then I've had some real time to think about it, and all in all I think I'm moderately satisfied. There were a few things that pissed me off about the ending, such as...
• WHAT HAPPENED TO THE REST OF THE ISLAND PEOPLE?I mean for crying out loud Patterson, this includes some main characters we love, Iggy, Gazzy, Nudge, TOTAL!!! And what about Ella and Dr. M? Angel hinted they were still alive when she said she was tapping into Dr. Martinez's thoughts, but the whole thing was just so... Weird. He definitely could have explained that better. Much, much better...
• So after the giant, sky slicing explosion thingy... What, Dylan's just suddenly not in love with Max anymore? I mean that actually made me happy, I've always shipped Fax but it was just a little too... Sudden. I know what JP was TRYING to do with all the shifts and sudden realizations of the characters and everything but... He didn't exactly write it very well. Shaking my head.
• Last thing that REALLY bothered me... was Angel. I mean, WHAT? SHE WAS THE VOICE? That's just, that's just... To me it sounds like JP dug himself into a hole with the whole "voice" thing, and just pinned it on Angel in the end. And what was up with Jeb in book 3 or something... Couldn't he do it too? I don't know, the whole thing just really confuzzled me. (Oh, and speaking of Jeb, what happened to him and Ari?!?!)
So, for me there were a lot of loose ends that I still wanted tied up. I would go on with all the things I liked (because it must seem like I'm really hating on Maximum Ride right now, this was actually a better book in the series and was worlds and away a better book than Angel) but I don't want this to sound like a book review. Now I'll just share with you my favorite part of the book and I'll leave you alone:
FANG AND MAX FANG AND MAX FANG AND MAX FANG AND MAX AND OH MY GAWSH!!!! <3 <3 <3
That is all.
I'm not quite sure what happened to Jeb... But I'm guessing that if he didn't get in the caves, he probably died. With Ari, remember Dylan killed him (then all the erasers died too.)

I still need to read it! If I ever get my book review done.
I literally read this like the day it came out :D Such an unexpected ending! And this pretty much means... I died :(
This book disappointed me. I was expecting a super ending, max saving the world. But she doesn't. There were too many loose ends. What about the bank card for max in one of the earlier books? About some of the flocks super powers? Like fang being able to blend into anything? Or angel being able to shapeship. The book series could have ended better. Don't get me wrong. I still love maximum ride, still a huge fan
Exactly... Everything was rushed and like you said, lots of loose ends tha should've been tied up. And Max never ended up saving the world, which sucked. I mean, that's what the whole series was building up to!
