Maximum Ride: Saving the World and Other Extreme Sports by James Patterson

I finished Maximum Ride: Saving the World and Other Extreme Sports yesterday...I was anxious to see what was going to happen to Max and her flock in this 3rd book in the series.

from Barnes and Noble:
"The time has arrived for Max and her winged "flock" to face their ultimate enemy and discover their original purpose: to defeat the takeover of "Re-evolution"--a sinister experiment to re-engineer a select population into a scientifically superior master race...and to terminate the rest. Max, Fang, Iggy, Nudge, Gasman, and Angel have always worked together to defeat the forces working against them--but can they save the world when they are torn apart, living in hiding and captivity, halfway across the globe from one another?"

Happy reading! If you read Maximum Ride: Saving the World and Other Extreme Sports, comment on this post and let me know how you liked it. :)

Four Perfect Pebbles

Four Perfect Pebbles by Lila Perl and Marion Blumenthal Lazan.

I simply could not put this down - I read it in about 1 hour this morning and this biography has stayed with me throughout today. It tells the story of Marion and her family as they struggle to survive the Holocaust.
