** spoiler alert **
it was awesome! i hope he will write another, but it did leave it with a somewhat satisfying ending. however, she didn't finish saving the world, and what is up with Angel and all her independence streak? that was just annoying because she learned in the last book that she shouldn't get into situations where she needs to be saved, and then goes and Max has to go try to save her, even when she doesn't feel like she needs to be saved. ugh.
one of the things that really bothered me was that the author was so contradictory. in the 4th book, it said Brigid was blond, and in this one, she was a redhead. and the second (i think) it said Max had "Blond-streaked" hair and said she had brown in this. make up your mind already!
it also had a weird feel to it, compared to the other books.
however, i loved it and wished it was two or three times longer.

that was the first book, and Max II had "Blonde-streaked hair." or just blonde. it said she looked in the van and saw blonde hair. it didn't have anything to do with the hairstyles. also, in the second book, at the public school, the one friend asked her where she'd had her hair done. she said the sun did it. :)
really? ok, i guess the author just has a poor memory. Good job, kudos to u 4 noticing that. I love finding authors' mistakes. Did u know that publishers back in the day were so confident that every printing error had been fixed in the bible they actually offered a ridiculously high reward to anyone that found a mistake? i think that was just an advertisement type thing to make them look good. i do believe no mistake was ever found... that was random :)
i noticed th brigid thing too! (wtf?) i have given up on max. she has so many hair colors that it doesnt matter to me anymore. maybe he does that to see if the readers are paying attention or.. hes very forgetful
they should be longer and i understand ur point about angel, she just finished saying that she has to stop getting into life or death situations(book 4) then she goes and does it again like 4 times in the book... she needs a beating from max cause the lectures are not working

I'm glad you pointed out how in the last book Angel was thinking about how she shouldn't get in situations that Max would have to save her from, but maybe in this book she was trying to prove she didn't need Max by pushing her independence?
