Reading Log

After reading the first book in the Maximum Ride series by James Patterson, I was immediately ready to dive into the next book, Maximum Ride: School's Out Forever. Patterson's fast-paced, action-packed series is about hybrid bird-children on the run. The six children are ages fourteen and under, parentless, and are running away from the unethical scientists who created them in an experiment. The second book in the series is just as intense as the first. After reading 142 of the short chapters, I finished the entire book in one week! This series has distracted me from my original reading goal of finishing the Left Behind series, but instead, I think I will make it a goal to finish or get close to finishing the eight-book series before school ends.
