Review: Okay, this book was pretty good, but it's not really for the picky (not me) people because while the chapters are short, there's 100 chapters and quite a few of them are spent on things that could've been put into a sentence and the plot still would've not been ruined.
For example, there was a chapter dedicated to the whole flock ordering food from the fast food store. Another time, Fang and Nudge were just watching hawks fly and learned 'tricks' from them.
So yeah, at least a 1/4 of the book could've been shaved off, but I liked the characters and chapters being short gave you illusions that you were reading a ton so it was okay.

I actually enjoy short chapters rather then long. Long ones make me dread books. Anyways I enjoyed the book, nice review.
BTW I'm doing a book give away and thought I let you know.
