I thought it was very cruel because the evil doctors take out the organs out of innocent people, who arent' donors, and do it for the money and glory. The only part I liked is when Max and Oz confessed their love to one another. I hate the part when Oz was shot in the heart and thats wherehe put a tatoo of a heart and has Max's name in it. AHS/KS

The Lake House by James Patterson is an interesting book about five genetically altered bird children and their care takers. These children, Max, Ozymandias, Ic, Matthew, Wendy, and Peter, had been taken from their mothers at birth and were allegedly dead until a veterinarian, Franny, and an FBI agent, Kit, rescued them from a horrible secret experiment lab called the school. The kids are forced to go back to living with their biological parents that they’ve never met and are very depressed about it. This novel explores the young bird children’s emotional growth as they fight to live with Franny and Kit and as they run for their lives from the evil doctor Kane.

Reminds me a lot of Michael Creighton's Next, but easier to read. This is my first James Patterson novel. I found him easy to read. The story was a little shallow, more so toward the end. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0316603287, Hardcover)

The six children have escaped horrifying government experiments, a childhood in captivity, and a frightening brush with death. Living out in the world for the first time, they yearn to be reunited with Kit and Frannie, the couple who saved their lives. And Max, the leader of the flock, is seized by an overpowering fear that the kids are about to face a danger greater than any they've ever known. All that the children want is to return to the one place they have ever felt truly protected-the waterfront cabin known as the Lake House.But in order to get there, they must thwart the sinister plans of a survivor from their worst nightmare-plans that not only keep Kit, Frannie, and the children in constant peril, but threaten the future of human existence. And it's a battle they must be willing to pay any price to win.
