Read them.
Oh, yeah, the whole second volume is pretty much centered around her. She's pretty important.
The thing that bothers my most is THERE'S NO MEREDITH. WAAH. humph.

I'm not totally sure on this, but I think that the books are totally different from the TV show. Like I think Elena is supposedly the "ice queen" of her school and I'm not even sure if she has a brother, I think she has a little sister instead. That's just according to reviews I read about it on amazon. But Maximum Ride are some really great books ! :)
It's true. Everything is absolutely and completely messed up, so I refuse to watch the TV show.

So you like the books better than the show ? I don't want to read the books because it would mess up everything I know from the show and confuse me :lol: Is Katherine even a character in the books ?
I like the show better. I'm almost done with the first book but I can't connect with Stefan in the book. Which is why I'm in book 2 of Maximum Ride and stuck in book 1 of Vampire Diaries. Yes I'm reading Maximum Ride... :lol:

Everyone should read Maximum Ride.

I'm rereadign Orson Scott Card's books about Sarah, Rebekah, Racheal, and Leah. I really like historical fiction, sci-fy, fantasy, and "what if this was different?" books so obviously he's on the top three favorite author list

That one's for Ianto. Risen Mitten, Life Knife, and that old classic...Stun Gun.

I have a massive bookcase filling the spare room, one above my bed (for Twilight related), one across the room (for L.J Smith) one for Fandom Books (Doctor Who, Torchwood, Primeval) and I still have books everywhere. We both need a walk in libary like in the Tardis.

If you like historical my friend recommended me A Great and Terrible Beauty by LIbba Bray. I have it but need to finish the book that I am in. But from what you wrote it sounds like something you might enjoy.

Just had to comment because I swear, you were reading my mind with this post!! I have no more room for another bookcase, but I caught myself looking at them the other day, trying to figure out where I could wedge another one into my house!! :lol: I've promised myself to catch up reading the books I have, but I don't see how I'm ever going to when I keep buying new ones every week! It's sad, really... :roll:
