Maximum Ride

I just started reading the book Maximum Ride by James Patterson. Many people have told me that this book is really good so I decided to give it a try. Judging by the front and back cover, this book seems to be a mystery and science fiction book. I read the first couple of pages and the story starts out with the main character, Max, having a nightmare. She has a dream that she is being chased by her enemies the half-man half-wolf people called the Erasers. She jumps off a cliff to escape and she grows wings and flies away. Then she jolts awake.

I was introduced to some other characters too. A boy Gasman, his younger six-year-old sister Angel, Fang who is only four months younger that Max, Iggy who is six months younger than Max, and eleven-year-old Nudge. These kids live together in a house in the middle of nowhere with no parents, no school, and no doctors. Only Gasman and Angel are related but they are all like brother and sister. Max, who is the oldest has to take on some responsibility and take care of them. I predict that these characters have all learned how to live by themselves but sometimes they just need that backbone, who is Max, to depend on and to lead them the right way.

From the ten pages I have read so far and the front cover, I predict that what happened in Max's nightmare will actually come true. I think her and her friends will be chased by the Erasers and will have to escape and survive some how. I also think each of them has some sort of special power because in Max's dream it said that she could fly. They might fight the Erasers with their special powers. I will have to read more and figure out what happens. If you read the book, comment if my predictions are right!
