Maximum Ride: School's out; Forever


Fang, Iggy, Angel, Nudge and Gazzy are all one flock, but it is only Max that has the voice in her head. Only Max that both Jeb and Ari like. Only Max, has to save the world from the white coats. I donn’t get why though, what’s there to save us from?  These poor kids have no one to trust, sometimes they can’t even trust themselves. Once, the white coats made a clone Max. Maximum Ride: School’s out; Forever by James Patterson is an adventure suspense and a little science fictiony all in one, but the suspense is the thing that really gets you.
                So if you’re confused right now, this is how it goes. These kids all got taken away from they’re parent because when they were little they’re parents sold them not knowing how bad it would be. Terrible, right? Well, once they got taken away they were put in Dr. Ter Bocht’s lab, and got experimented on. Making them half human half bird. They all escaped the lab and are now being tracked down by erasers. Erasers are these demented things that I think would be really terrifying, they’re like half wolf and half human, all except Ari who is stuck between his morphing stages. Oh, and Jeb is Ari’s father and works for the white coats. I think it’s weird because, he let them turn in his own son into an eraser.  Such a fail of a father, he is.
                With all of the suspense in this book it’s hard to put down. Plus, with all of their adventures and drama, it makes the story just that much better. But in reality, it must really suck to have wings, no parents or place to live, and to be chased down by hungry, human killing experiments. How can Max still want to keep trying after all that, because, I know that I sure wouldn’t. Never the less, Max is a fighter, she never gave up even when death was staring her in the face. Now that’s bravery, at least in my book it is.
                This book follows the tragedy mode of literature, and I’ll show you why. First of all, the world is in conflict with the main character, which is Max. Everybody wants to kill her, and her flock. Next up is the rise to power. Max and her flock escape the lab and our trying to find somewhere to live. Now there has to be a tragic flaw which is Max killing Ari. It may not seem bad now, but trust me, it was not a good choice. For the tragic fall it is when Ari comes back to life and tries to kill Max. Well, that didn’t work out to well. Finally for death or death symbolism, at the end of the book the flock is just about to get killed when. It ends. The book just ends.
                This whole book is like a rollercoaster. With Its ups and downs and twists and turns. You also get a thrill from reading. I’m super glad this is a series because I really enjoyed reading it. Maximum Ride: School’s Out; Forever is a book for anyone that likes suspense with a little bit of a twist.
