Youth fiction - 3 stars
Our March Mother-Daughter Book Club pick was the first in a series about human genetic experiments trying to discover the secrets of their origins while simultaneously trying to stay alive and out of the lab. Maximum Ride delivers a good story that is definitely for the early teen crowd. It's a light "beach read" kind of book, with little character development, but a lot of action and angst. I enjoyed reading it, as did Megan because of the action, but I don't think I'll go on with the series. I've seen a lot better from James Patterson.
