I was ...I used to be a big fan of Max Ride as well. I was a bit obsessed with the first two books. The third book ... I thought it was okay, but it got pretty confusing. After that, they all just ... suck. And have no plot, as you said. Around the third book it became apparent that the author had no idea how to answer any of the questions he/she had raised. He/she had pretty much been improvising the entire time. (I say "he/she" because I don't believe James Patterson actually wrote the books; in fact, I'm pretty sure there must be multiple authors.) Anyway, the series really has some of the sloppiest plotting I've ever seen. But at least the first two or so books were fun and enjoyable, and I liked the characters for those first couple of books. Then, sadly, it all went way downhill.Brigid Gorry-Hineshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15481935746189946137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5364337739890543904.post-52405623502218255452011-12-04T10:43:54.177-08:002011-12-04T10:43:54.177-08:00*le gasp!*

This sounds like the kind of book I'd pick up to flip through and admire the drawings (as I draw myself), but not particularly be into the story. I find that graphic novels based on books tend to miss a lot of the details, but I can't judge this one because I haven't read either of them.<br /><br />But in any case, I think you made a fair review, and I, at least, would like to see more, if you want to put future reviews here. Yay. :DNasaiya Inamaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17036285899924040215noreply@blogger.com
