Well I flew through both the first and second Maximum Ride books in a few days, and I'm impressed with the way they really pull you in. However, I'm kind of sick of the lack of answers as I get further into the series. I feel like for each new question raised another question should be answered, but instead the new questions just build on the old and I don't have answers to much of anything. Who is the voice inside Max and Ari's heads? Why and how are the Erasers and Jeb constantly following the flock around? It's frustrating, and reminds me of why I stopped watching the series "Lost." But, I still recommend this book for young readers who have trouble getting into books without getting bored. I'm gonna send this to one of my cousins who isn't a big reading fan, but I have a feeling he'll like Maximum Ride.
