    I've never heard of the maximum ride series so just looked it up on amazon and it sounds very different to the other James Patterson books that i've read - it says they are aimed at young adults. All the books have very good reviews though so i would also be interested if anyone has read these as i like James Patterson but this just sounds too different for him! :lol:

    A great series of books to read is the Women's Murder Club by James Patterson.

    The first book is called 1st to Die and is brilliant. They are about a Homicide Detective, Lindsay Boxer,a Journalist Cindy Thomas, a Coroner Claire Washburn and a DA Jill Bernhardt who get together to solve murders. Its does sound quite cheesy but the books are excellent I have read the first three and there are 8 in total. If you enjoy a great crime/mystery novel I highly recommend you read these. :D

     

    I love the Women's Murder Club series too, I think I have read the first five and have books 6 and 7 on my bookshelf. Although I do think it is a bit strange that James Patterson doesn't do most of the writing himself as each book has a sort of co-writer - I'm not really sure how it works as the books do all have the same sort of flow and style to them but the co-writer is not the same for them all:shrug:

    Have finished Twenties Girl and I throughly enjoyed it! The characters grew on me as I got further through the book and although it is a bit far fetched I still really like her style of writing and it was just so easy to read.

     

    Hope you're enjoying it chesilbeach!

    I'm 26 now but last year when I was 25 I pulled up in my car to get my dad's lottery tickets and was refused! I even pointed out to the woman that I had just got out of my car but she still said no, so I was 9 years older than the legal age to play and I was refused, was quite strange, but I found it funny in a complimentry kind of way :D

    Ha ha, good point Michelle! I do that all the time to be honest - borrow books from the library but then don't get round to starting them or just don't like them so never finish them :lol:

     

    But if she has read them all that is very impressive! She can't possibly remember what happens in them all though!

    Yeah I loved the goosebumps books too! I watched the TV series as well but I didn't think it was as good as the books. I don't remember any book specifically but I do remember being scared in bed at night after reading them :lol:

    I watched the first episode last night. I thought it was ok and will keep watching it as I usually don't get hooked with the first episode of many things. I haven't read the books yet but am in the bookring for them so I'm looking forward to receiving them ;)
