Book 37 of 52 -- James Patterson's Maximum Ride: Saving the World and Other Extreme Sports

As the summer of fun continues, I have realized that this is the perfect time to read a bunch of crap in addition to the Harry Potter Books

James Patterson has put out four books this year.

Seriously...

His latest book Maximum Ride: Saving the World and Other Extreme Sports is a continuation of a series of books that he enjoys writing. It is the only series of books that he writes by himself. All of his other books nowadays have co-authors and follow a similar formula. The tone and sarcasm in this novel are similar to what he normally writes, but with a twist... it is oriented for "Young Adults."



This is officially located in the "Young Adults" section of the library yet it reads and has the same sort of action as his regular books... just without the sex and violence.

The book was decent enough, but I wouldn't really recommend it unless you have liked the four original books -- two as young adult books and two as adult, regular fiction books.

Look for something fun to do this summer... most likely.... avoiding this book.
