Maximum Ride and other members of the flock have barely recovered from their last Arctic adventure, when they are confronted by the most frightening catastrophe yet. Millions of fish are dying off the coast of Hawaii and someone--or something-- is destroyed hundreds of ship. Unable to discover the cause, the government enlists he flock to help them get to the bottom of the disaster before it is too late.

While Max and her team are exploiting the depths of the ocean, their every move is being carefully tracked by Mr. Chu-- a criminal mastermind with his own plans for the flock. Can they protect themselves from Mr.Chu's army of mercenaries and save the ocean from utter destruction?

Taschima's POV:

We are back with Max and the flock, and this time were going to Hawaii. We are presented to some new evils, as well as old ones. Max is still on her mission to save the world, but is she getting closer to the deed? Or just running in circles?

To me this book did not bring anything new to the table. I think Patterson is trying to get all the juice he can out of this series, and I got to say stop doing it. I think this series should be put to an end before it gets *shudders* any worse.

It's not that the book is bad, I mean its very enjoyable, and utterly hilarious, but I think that he just completely changed the story for us since the fourth book. Is this book better than the fourth? yeah. Am I going to keep reading them? probably, but just because of my love for the characters though.

Speaking of the characters, Max was as good as ever. Her smart-ass remarks, and her sarcastic nature never leave her for a sec, thank god for that. Fang is still as dark, and fascinating as ever, and all the other characters are true to their nature. They keep growing with every book, only reason I keep reading.

Another thing that bother me is the Mary Poppins bag of powers. I swear every time they open their mouths to say something is like, hey dudes I got gills now! Like how is that even possible? The scientist didn't do anything to make them something other than bird freaks, or did I miss something?

Please let the next book be the last, dragging the series is not always good, and I don't think even my love for the characters will make me buy another two books.

Q: What is the one ARC you would love to get your hands on right now? A: That's so hard! I have to say that probably Silence (Hush, Hush #3) by Becca Fitzpatrick is the one I want the most. I haven't even gotten the chance to read Crescendo yet, but I loved Hush, Hush and am hooked into this series. The covers, the writing, the characters, the plot...everything! I would love to have this ARC! Q: Talk about the book that most changed or influenced your life (was it a book that turned you from an average to avid reader, did it help you deal with a particularly difficult situation, does it bring you comfort every time you read it?).   A: I would have to say that the Twilight Saga is what influenced my life. I read the series around three years ago before the movies came out. During that time, my family was going through so much and it was hard to handle it. I didn't have that much support to go to and I was confused as to my position and my health. I got hooked to Twilight bec...

Q: Let’s talk crazy book titles! Highlight one or two (or as many as you like!) titles in your personal collection that have the most interesting titles! If you can’t find any, feel free to find one on the internet! A: I'll stay true and look at my bookshelf. I don't have any crazy titles, but one that I got for my birthday is The Element Encyclopedia of Vampires: An A-Z of the Undead by Theresa Cheung . My sister bought it for me since she said this is "exactly" what I needed. Q: How has your reading habits changed since you were a teen? or If you are still a teen what new genres are you in love with currently? A: I love romance! I think that I'm a hopeless romantic, so I NEED romance. I can't get into a book if it has absolutely no romance. I've always been into urban fantasy, romance, and Young Adult, but I think I'm getting into more historical fiction.
