Maximum ride
Max and her crew were at the school and the principle said “ if you know anything about Jeff Walker then step right up.”
So at the house Max told Iggy that she saw his parents and she asked him if he wanted to go see them. Before that Max and the others flew into a cave. After they got to the cave Nudge and Gazzy asked Max if they can stay for Thanksgiving and Max said ok only if they have really good pumpkin pie. I like how Max found out her power. So the only person we haven't found out his power yet is Gazzy. I also like how Angle hypnotized the cop that pulled them over.

I would give this book a five star because it's giving us information about what the flock does.

Library Summary: "Escaping Itex in Florida, the flock head west, with Max more burdened than ever by the knowledge that she's meant to save the world. But while their leader is keen to stay on the path leading to her destiny, Fang and the others are more interested in settling down and letting the chips fall where they may. With the erasers eerily absent from their lives of late, has the flock finally earned a bit of peace... or is this all just the calm before the storm?"
