A review by carlee313
The Angel Experiment by James Patterson

4.0

Okay, so let me preface this with the fact that I read this book a long long long time ago, like when I was in elementary school; but that doesn't really mean much because I also read novels meant for adults at that age too (yes, I was that kid). Anyways, I adored this book just as much as I did when I was young, probably because I still have this morbid fascination with science gone wrong, genetic experiments and the like. Maybe that makes me a freak in turn, but I can't help what keeps my eyes glued to the page. The characters were beautifully developed and remarkably unique, by the end of the book I felt like I had a personal and emotional connection to each and every one of them. If you've read any of my other reviews, you know that the characters and their growth are the most important part of any book for me, so to find a book that has both an interesting premise and captivating characters is absolutely phenomenal. So I tip my metaphorical hat to Mr. Patterson for making me a part of the twisted and remarkable world of Max and her family. But aside from all of that, there were some serious drawbacks that forced me to lower my overall rating.
........
I would recommend this book to anybody who wants to be whisked away to a world existing just underneath our noses, a world of twisted science, a world in which the primary goal is to find the humanity in the not-quite-human.
