Max

Can't think of much to write about... except BOOKS! ;)

What I'm Reading: Max, by James Patterson

Max is the 5th book in the Maximum Ride series. Not saying TOO much about it here, just in case some people (what people, Nightshade? You have like one person reading your blog) haven't read the rest of the series yet. But anyway, in this 5th book, Max and the rest of the flock are on a mission to rescue Dr. Martinez, with some help from old friends and new... err... not exactly friends. Not sure what to call the US navy, you know?

Suddenly it was quiet, the kind of quiet you have out in the desert in the middle of the night when everyone around you goes silent at the same time. Nudge, Iggy, Gazzy, Angel, and Total focused on me and Fang, their faces upset.

I looked from one to the next. They were really freaked, but they weren't trying to escape anything. They weren't bloody. They hadn't been in battle in the past twenty minutes.

"What. Is. Going. On?" I asked very deliberately, searching their eyes.

"It's, uh..." Nudge began, then cleared her throat. She glanced at the others, then tried again, meeting my gaze bravely. "It's your mom, Max. Dr. Martinez. She's been kidnapped. She's gone."
