Ok, I love this series but I was wondering, how the hell can the kids only be 2% bird? I mean, you'd think that huge wings tacked on their backs, raptor-like eyes, and super thin bones would account for them being more than 2% bird right?

XD I think you'll find it worthwhile. It's a great series! It's about these 6 bird kids and. . .it's really hard to explain the whole thing

Do it!! The books feel really thick but if you're an average reader it shouldn't take you more than a few hours. Seriously, I finished the 3rd one in an afternoon

Yes! There's 4 so far!
It's about these 6 kids, Max, Fang, Iggy, Nudge, Gasman, and Angel who were part of scientific experiments (done in secret) to combine their DNA with birds. So, they can fly, they have 'raptor' vision, and their bones are lightweight. Like, Max is the main character and 'leader' of the bird kids, and she's 5' 8" but she's only 98 pounds because she's part bird. So, these kids escaped from the 'school' (the science lab) and are on the run. It sounds simple but lots of things happen and theirs lots of fights.

Pretty much any book store I bet. They're pretty good, though I've only read 1 & 2.
